8th June - Group B - India v Sri Lanka

[Daemon]

I seen loads questioned Sharma and Dhawan being included in the squad.

They'll be the front of the queue to priase them now. Back to back hundred partnerships.

Really? Haven't seen a single one so far, even on facebook.

Only dumbos who forget any cricket that happened a month ago would do that. Rohit /Dhawan had poor IPL season so drop them...let's forget about the last 4 years

 

[Contra]

This is gonna be a huge score.

This offspinners is rank and my heart aches every time Nohit hits boundaries

India such a quality side. Feel like they are the closest to being good/very good 1 to 11.

 

[Contra]

Rohit doing the damage today.

Before the start of the tournament, when I said that, most people were like "oh England, South Africa, Australia are so much better". Even HB didn't agree with me when I said India have one of the best bowling attacks in this tournament

Last CT also, these two consistently gave India good starts (that was the first time we tried them out as an opening partnership IIRC).

Good omens.

 

[Contra]

Dhawan just getting stuck after a good initial start. Needs to kick on now. Should be targetting 350+ against this SL attack.

 

[Spark]

If India don't rack up a gigantic score in this game then it might just not happen in this tournament.

 

[Contra]

lol Rohit

Dhawan was actually very good in the IPL tbh. Looked like he was getting his touch back.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Ffs rohit. Was just about to post that he's on track for another double.

Oh well, I'll settle for a kohli ton.

 

[mackembhoy]

Suck it virat

That was a shocking shot mind

I don't really mind it if we can win games with the ball TBH. Makes a nice change as an Indian fan. Consistently getting 300-ish is not to be sniffed at either.

This is why gambhiring is good

Kohli's going to be owned next time he tours England for tests,isn't he?

Yes and it will be beautiful

 

[Contra]

Don't think he'll be playing a dab in tests when there's a bunch of slips, the way he got out now was just him trying to get a single by bunting it down in the wicket. That's exactly how he gets his limited overs starts by taking a lot of singles with that same shot.

 

[Athlai]

My rankings of Kohli, Root, Williamson, Smith seem to change on an innings basis now.
