***Official*** India in Sri Lanka 2015

[harsh.ag]

Got Thirimanne, Tharanga, and Kaushal out. All proper international bats, well, almost...

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

WAC. Used up his one good spell per series here. We're so ****ed for the Tests now.

Security first

 

[Contra]

Rohit getting 2 cheap scores in the match, now if Pujara can go on and smash a century that would be ideal.

Kohli's made it clear that Rohit will play at 3 though. Wac.

 

[smash84]

Ishant has a 5fer, SL must be really happy

Kohli's made it clear that Rohit will play at 3 though. Wac.

The only way to explain this is Rohit has something on Kohli. Would bet on having found Kohli cheating on Anushka

with who? Rohit? How else would he find out

 

[G.I.Joe]

No one's commented on N Dickwella yet? CW, I am disappoint.

 

[TheJammyTurtle]

Just seen the Sri Lanka squad,dissaponted that Vithanage has been left out,think he has far too his game in the longer format then Thirimanne.Good to see they've actually kept the faith with Tharanga too,cant help but feel dissaponted if they don't give Kusal a go this series.

If Vijay's injury is serious then India's top 6 should be below:

Rahul, Dhawan, Pujara, Kohli, Rahane, Saha.

 

[longranger]

Who is India's Test vice captain ? I remember reading something hilarious about it being Ishant Sharma, but that can't really be true. Is it Rahane ? Or perhaps Ashwin ? Rohit would be a good shout too except he doesn't deserve to start in the playing XI as of now

 

[honestbharani]

Think it is Ishant... More experienced than Ashwin

The jokes old. Was funnier when he was playing against De Kock and BJ.

It is actually Ishant.


Nohit at 3, Ishant vc, Pujara dropped, Bhajji recalled...you cant make this stuff up.

 

[Migara]

Sanga is weak against spin? come on...Ajmal rates him the best batsman he has ever bowled to

Was pretty trash against Swann and few off spinners in the past.

Vithanage is an ugly slogger. He has to get his head right first. Mubarak had been doing very well. Although we call him Crapu, Kapugedara did connect them sweetly in the T20s, so he has a shout too. Biggest dissapointment is Milinda Siriwardane, who seems to be hot with the bat, and should use him when he's hot.

 

[weldone]

Pujara was made to retire out after getting a good start. I am assuming that's because he's now officially the first choice for no. 3 ahead of Rohit. It'd be very unfair otherwise.

 

[weldone]

How is the Galle weather looking?

 

[OverratedSanity]

Vijay's such a massive loss.

 

[weldone]

Vijay's such a massive loss.

not as massive as outside SC imo...hopefully both Dhawan and Rahul can hold their own in SL conditions
