DomainK Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Shamelessly copy-pasting from another forum, but this is worth it: Srilanka were supposed to be the best sub continental team with the best discipline. Read this: #Sri Lanka, after 2 tests took just 11 Australian wickets. India had taken 34 wickets in the first two tests. # Kumble himself had taken more wickets than the entire bowling attck of Sri Lanka managed in two tests. #Pathan playing just two tests, took more wickets than all the great Sri Lankan pacers together. #Sehwag, a part timer spinner, who played 2 tests took 4 wickets at an average of 27. Murali took 4 wickets at an average of 100 in two tests.

DomainK Posted July 28, 2008 Author Posted July 28, 2008 Numping an old thread of mine. Some interesting statistics of India and Srilanka's performance against Australia not very long ago. I am not trying to negate Lanka's victory, just thinking how fast things change.
The_Black_Prince Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 The bottom-line is that India has an inferiority complex when playing Lanka in Lanka. Not since Hanuman laced Lanka....or at least since 1992.....has India done anything of note in that island. What is the problem ??? Why are Jayawadena and Murali like Indrajit and Kumbkarran when they see India ??? This is a big mystery.
Sachinism Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Well it may be good to read now, but that was then, this is now
DadaRocks Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Aus deleberately made flat pan cakes to make sure Murli doesnt break Warne record in Aus....

I personally think that Indian team is GOOD enough to come back strong in the series, but this whining attitude of indian fans is just pathetic. Also, do you know what was sachin's average against Oz after first 2 tests?

Also, do you know what was sachin's average against Oz after first 2 tests? i dont think anyone is whining here..Lankans are a formidable unit at home and everyone knows that..but they suck overseas and these facts were provided to substantiate that point..they just dominate teams in Lanka and wen they go out they really are poor..and yes my friend all the sane ppl in this forum do know that the Indian team is strong enuf to make a gud comeback..
Sachinism Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 And still.... yeh then India were 2nd only to Aus, since then we lost to SA and SL
