iHammad Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I think lead of 100 would give SL a good advantage. Indian bowlers really need to take some early wickets on Day 3 to prevent a lead. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I don't think both teams are capable of bowling each other out. Unless the pitch breaks out i don't think there is going to be a result. Link to comment
