Mediocre Captaincy...  Dimuth is under bowling his premier spinner Ramesh Mendis...  That's what happens when u pick 3 spinners.  But at least bowl attacking one more often.  100 run + lead was there for the taking.

Ball is dry initially...  We trusted Boobie too much & Bumrah was in awful form for a year.  It was bad planning from start to finish. 

151 wasn't too bad.  Pak's blazing start in the end was the difference. 

Yes initial wickets were required but from seamers. Dont remember Varun bowling much in PP.

 

To me they looked defeated right from the start. The body language was so poor especially after 3 early wickets

Was never in favor of picking him.  Even in SL Rahul Chahar was outbowling him.  Confidence & X factor he lacked in both.  Kuldeep has 10 times the mystery this guy claimed he has. 

Chakri type spinners roam in Lankan streets as tourist guides:bebored:

When ball goes soft...  It looks much easier to bat.  Even no XI Naseem is defending easily. 

Both teams botched up with the bat.  SL overly aggressive while Pak over defensive. 

That happened in ingerlund too. Pretty much everywhere. But those Gora choras benchoth lowda kept changing balls every 10 overs vs us.

Yeah they made us pay heavily for that...  I wonder why our Brown sepoys didn't protest on that.   Well deserved thrashing in the end.

Babarindra Jadeja playing beyond selfishly with the tail. 

Guy has ridiculously low IQ...  He looks clueless when it's all on him.   Always a sidekick can never take the onus to do it solo. 

That's what separates him from Stokes & Holders.   CSK were right to sack him.

Some mind numbing cricket going on right now from both sides. Babar not trying to attack and get as many as possible.. Sri Lanka not caring at all about picking up the last wicket.

Lol Sri Lanka. Showing exactly why they are borderline minnows. Zero intensity even after the opposition are 9 down. Same with Paxtan in the first innings.

Babar Azam is on 90s...this guy is just amazing. Scores 100s for fun whenever he bats...terrific player :hatsoff:

 

Easily the best batsman at present by some distance

Exactly what I said. He is the best Asian batsman on the planet period. Even better than pant. He bats in a way harder position than pannauti pant.
