Aren't we tired of playing Sri Lanka again and again?

[falconhawk]

We should be tired of playing Sri Lanka. We are kicking their asses all the time since 2007. We should play other teams like South Africa, Australia (more games), or Pakistan.

[Laaloo]

Aus and SAF are not free till Feb. And we don't want to play against the padosis. Eng are busy.

[PotterManiac]

I think its not about who we are playing ahianst, its more about where we are playing! Its all flat pitches and our bowlers are burning out...either we make bowler friendly pitches here or we tour...thats the only option!

[riya]

Absolutely.The upcoming tri series is the waste series ever !

[diegovegaz]

we might be playing them over again and again, but we still haven't got a hold over them

[Karan114]

we might be playing them over again and again' date=' but we still haven't got a hold over them[/quote'] That was back when Mendis was destroying us...since we worked him out we have been dominating them big time

[punjabi_khota]

In last 2 years, we have played 23 ODIs against them. Winning 14 and losing 7 with 2 NR. :omg:

[punjabi_khota]

we might be playing them over again and again' date=' but we still haven't got a hold over them[/quote'] IIRC we have won all the 3 recent bilateral ODI series against them with one match to spare.

[diegovegaz]

were u snoring when Indian was winning series over series against them???? :whack:

were u blind, when dilshan, sanga, kandambi were tearing apart our bowling, match after match

[graphic23]

Um, were you blind and snoring when our batsmen more than that to their bowlers? Besides, we've come out on top as a bowling side more often than they have.

[Karan114]

were u blind' date=' when dilshan, sanga, kandambi were tearing apart our bowling, match after match[/quote'] We beat them 3-1 in that series, and what's more the last two wins were thrashings. You have no idea what you are talking about.

[yoda]

a 5 match ODI series immediately followed by a tri-series with them is about as stupid as it gets.

[vvvslaxman]

At this rate they will get too friendly and batsman and fielder will celebrate the wicket fall together.

[King Tendulkar]

This series is a bit zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Sachinism]

absolutely Definitely sick on playing SL. Also WTF is up with a 7 ODI series vs Australia every year. I'm pretty sure we're playing them again this year :wall:

[Params7]

The entire country except BCCI board members are tired.

:two_thumbs_up:

[Show_stopper]

We have more to lose than gain by playing them..they have plummeted in ODI rankings over the past year thanks to them playing us so ofetn. I think they are ranked #7..clearly any win will fetch far less points. OTOH if we lose we might losa quite a few points.
