***Official*** India's Tour of Sri Lanka 2017

[harsh.ag]

Well done champ. Soldier on to the next tour, trooper.

 

[Gnske]

We've all got a bit of Hardik in us today.

Thought he'd cooked the goose with that 2

 

[silentstriker]

Glad I stayed up. Excellent hundred.

 

[srbhkshk]

Full marks to Yadav for not throwing it away.

 

[cnerd123]

Lmao Hardik. What an innings

 

[OverratedSanity]

Piss poor captaincy from Chandimal today it has to be said.

 

[harsh.ag]

Yeah, captaincy was quite lacking in the latter stages.

 

[OverratedSanity]

So, what's our batting order if Saha, Ashwin, Jadeja and Hardik all play?

 

[srbhkshk]

Kohli thinks it is - Ashwin - Saha - Hardik - Jadeja
Personally I will go - Saha - Hardik - Ashwin - Jadeja

 

[honestbharani]

*searching for my 2015 post stating Pandya has the potential to be the allrounder we have always lacked*



<to be edited>

 

[Bijed]

Even two time triple centurion Jadeja doesn't have one yet I think

*Three time

 

[honestbharani]

How funny was it that a man with no FC hundreds at that point was shielding the strike from the man who has one.

 

[quincywagstaff]

Why on earth did Tharanga review that?

 

[quincywagstaff]

And now Mendis almost needlessly run, partly because his turning around was so arduous he was almost at mid-wicket by the time he tried to reach his ground.

Good point made by the comms about the Tharanga DRS; that he was asking his batting partner was effectively trying to put the onus partly on him.

 

[TheJammyTurtle]

Proper snake ball that

This Indian team is shaping up to be very versatile. Batsmen who, in different combinations, work in all parts of the world (England being the weakest spot as of now). Bowlers, with the rise of Shami and Umesh, who work in all conditions too, including different types of spinners as required. All round players making a long tail. A wicketkeeper who knows what he is doing. A captain who seems to be inspiring.

Now if only he would keep himself away from the slips.

Nah, Ash, Hardik, Saha, Jaddu will work better imo.

We should have a good chance in Eng as soon as that **** Anderson retires.

 

[honestbharani]

Awesome stuff. Ash effecting a fielding dismissal. Who knew?

 

[OverratedSanity]

This is absolutely wretched from SL
