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

[Pratters]

Apart from the ones where they made the runs, the shots were proper defensive blocks. Which was a major percentage of balls faced.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Dhawan's shots are not those risky kind of thing. It's difficult to explain. Those are tight punches. High reward.

 

[Contra]

Still a bit soon to be talking with that sort of arrogance imo.

if India don't win from this position well then I don't even know..

 

[Pratters]

Ashwin to make 50+

Well we had NZ 90/5 with 160 needed to avoid an innings defeat.

 

[Pratters]

Kohli was being foxed a bit by Kaushal. Went on the counter attack. His attitude is incredible, that's for sure.

yeah on a pitch that just got better and better, and with only 4 bowlers not 5.

 

[spit]

where exactly?

Hong Kong on my VPN works fine for me

 

[Contra]

Wait only his 3rd fifty? Damn Dhawan does like converting his starts

meanwhile Kohli just making it look easy.

 

[hendrix]

You have to be joking. Especially with Lara.

Yeah, actually more so Sachin up until 2002 or so. The post gave me quite a bit of pause.

Fat **** Zaheer and Ravindra "darts.com" Jadeja vs Mishra and Ashwin - who even when bowling poorly at least try to take wickets - is quite a difference, too.

 

[TheJammyTurtle]

Not sure if the hype with Sri Lanka about Kaushal is fully justified.Dilruwan Perera never really deserved to be dropped imo.

Nah Zak bowled well in that match, he almost had McCullum out with his knuckle ball a couple of times, would have easily traded Rohit Sharma for Ashwin in that match, which would have been immense for India.

New Zealanders can tuck into this.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Hope these two get to stumps for an almost perfect day.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Btw just quietly, Kohli now averages 100 as captain.

 

[NUFAN]

Will Virat join Vengsarkar up on top of the most highly acclaimed batting records in this knock?

 

[Contra]

Well played India. Gotta keep going tommorow with a big lead.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Amazing day

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Chandigun maybe batting too low

 

[indiaholic]

Pretty much the perfect day. Much to my shame I was hoping and praying that Rohit would fail.
