Ind vs SL, '10, Third test in Colombo: End of the day discussions and predictions for next day

[kabira]

205 runs, all we need is one 80 run partnerhsip and one 40 and on 30 and we are there.

[Anakin]

Indian victory :yay:

[Tendulkar_Bhai]

I predict India to win with Dhoni and a tailender left to mop up a few final runs, but it wont be easy as its a final day (im guessing the pitch will still hold up) and the pressure will be there. Wanted Dravid to hang in once Shewag went but he was v unlucky. Still if I.S can stay with Tendulkar for 10-15 overs and we win he;ll have made up for his poor bowling.

[Robin Hood]

Knowing indias propensity to not chase well in 4th innings and collapse like a house of cards on tough pitch like this, i predict India to be 150 all out. Srilanka to win by 100 runs.

[sudheer kumar]

Predict who will win this match? India or Srilanka.........or it is draw

[Guest Hiten.]

We're gonna lose by 40-50 runs.

[Zelig]

the game is at an interesting juncture! Mendis getting 70 odd was surprising but that's how the game is .... With Vijay and Dravid doing little so far in the series, I would take Ind's score as 53/1 (instead of 53/3) with Sehwag being the big wicket.

U kidding rett? Just coz they didnt do anything in series, we cant say that, can we? We needed the top order here, but they have fizzled. Sehwag continues the brilliant run in 1st Inn, but he struggles in 2nd - I was expecting that. But I really wanted Vijay and Dravid to build the platform, but they failed miserably.

[Karan114]

^ True. Also, given the nature of this pitch, Vijay getting out after getting a start and that too just a couple of overs before stumps was criminal.

[dial_100]

hard to say...not possible w/o SRT, VVS

[Manny_Pacquiao]

SL win by 52 runs.

55 is misc. bawu

[hari504504]

old guard will take us home..Tendu and Laxman... only one more wicket will fall tomorrow..

[falconhawk]

Michael Hussey is better than Sachin Tendulkar. You know why. Michael Hussey is better than Sachin Tendulkar because he can play under pressure and win matches for Australia and change things around and averages more than Sachin too. Sachin has won less matches for India. When the team needs him he doesn't score.

[The Outsider]

Oh just feck off. Come back in a couple of weeks if you have anything to contribute besides trolling.

[ensd2]

MEK is a good cricketer but he doesn't plays at the same league as Sachin Tendulkar

Given how these two have fared in this series, their wkts w/o much contribution was somewhat expected so the point is things aren't as bad as the 53/3 score suggests because of the 3 wkts, 2 were likely to fall early. It's the rest of the guys that would have to make the match out of this and those wkts are still there!
