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

[Kirkut]

It's sad to see how the fighting spirit of the Indian team has diminished. There was a time when we were 8 down and Laxman plays a master knock to win us the game, now this.

Harbhajan promotion worked...

So back to what I was saying earlier about changes to be made after this loss...

Bhajji Aaron Nohit out
Bhuvi Yadav Pujara in.

Also perhaps strip Kohli of captaincy and give it to Ashwin.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Nah no one looks at that sort of stuff as the years pass, no one deducts marks for Lara being dropped by Healy or KP being dropped by Warne.

drops=/= umpiring mistakes.

Anyway, **** it, let's talk about how **** this team is.

tbf we still have Rahane and Aswhin...

This is a dumb **** post. Seriously.

 

[Xuhaib]

Great knock but can't look past the fact that he was stone dead twice. Not going to blame that for the loss, but the innings will be judged with that in mind.

This is an era where they should be no howlers only if india could stay with the time i would treat those decisions like dropped chances tbh.

 

[The Battlers Prince]

it's not embarrassing to be out to Herath, but to crumble like this is disappointing

 

[Contra]

Would have preferred them getting out trying to attack rather than hang around, this is just sad.

Overreact much about Kohli?

 

[longranger]

This is ****ing ridiculous. We have thrown away this. Bunch of overpaid, soft IPL 'Stars' who don't have the gumption to win an overseas Test.

Horrendous batting display.

I hope it's carrying the decaying husk that is Rohit Sharma's test career.

 

[Contra]

Where is pujara! =(

No I'd have preferred they actually win. Them slogging and collapsing would be just as bad.

 

[Jono]

I still believe

 

[cnerd123]

Not a srs point abt Kohli if no one got that.

 

[Binkley]

If Sri Lanka win from here, this will have to go down as one of test cricket's greatest come-backs. Cricket at its most thrilling.

Attacking =/= slogging. Defending will eventually lead to getting out unless you are really good defense wise (which this team isn't tbh). SL's second innings has shown that attacking is the better option which India obviously haven't noted.

 

[indiaholic]

Yeah kinda difficult to appreciate it now but this is a massive massive win from a SL perspective.

 

[duffer]

Lmao Shastri with the cap backwards. Embarrassing.
