Disappointing

[GautiMaan]

Maybe u have a point,lets see what happens next match...

[Texy]

Next match is in colombo right? expect our batters to come back in "form"

[Vilander]

Some players edging, some players playing it on the stumps. Just not a usual day, but just one of those days where we should move on from. Nothing to take away from Lankan bowlers who bowled decent line and length, on some other day, those delivers would have been let go by our bats or put away. Congrats Lankans. Glad our cheetahs managed to get a wicket here and weren't able to pull of a rape.

dude you liken animals to our cricketers like our neighbours..

Yup but we had a great chance to be up 2-0 here. We won the toss and if we had put up a decent total SL would have had to chase under lights. Missed a great opportunity and wasted the toss which we rarely win

All in jest. I doubt our bowlers in last decade other than Kumble have impressed me so much that I will ever knight them with words like Cheetahs or Legend or Jordan.

I remember a couple of matches in SA in 90s when the whole match involving Pakis was over even before the dinner break :hysterical:

Match-fixing!

[achilles]

We had our 60 odd all out in the 1990s. Guess that game was over before the lunch break

[The Realist]

He's come to the end of his cycle like all captains or coaches. It really is time to look at life post-Dhoni but the problem is the lack of contenders for his position as captain.

[Stuge]

I blame the IPL for all this' date=' and also Sachin's questionnable decisions[/quote'] Yes ,Sachin has to be part of discussion whether he is part of series or not .:haha::haha::haha::hysterical:

[SLICKR392]

He had showed this same intense during the WC and after winning that -NOTHING! Viru and Dhoni were all smiles after the loss :facepalm:

[SLICKR392]

It happened during the 2008 ODI series in SL.

[SLICKR392]

Sehwag - Never thought that Perrara would take a blinder such as that. Kohli - A good bowl. Rohit, Raina - Stayed low. But seriously what was Raina trying to do there? Dhoni - Bounced but fail shot. Zak,Ojha - Can't blame them. Ashwin - :facepalm: He was batting well but after he saw there was no run there...he stood there looking at Gauti's face :facepalm: Gambhir : :hatsoff: Not for his 60+ but for that innings...that was some pressure.

They couldnt assess the pitch. Though it is another 300 wicket track, deceived.

[suraj]

Sachin should be made captain when he is not vacationing

[Ultimate_Game]

They couldnt assess the pitch. Though it is another 300 wicket track' date=' deceived.[/quote'] I think Dhoni did mention at the toss that track had more grass and we did start off with 31/0 after 3 overs. We were way too loose with our shot making followed by hare-brained running from Ashwin.

i think we lost somewhere in the region of 90 runs because of that. But i cant see that changing the result of the game, but we would not have got trashed, which is not a big deal considering SL always win big when they win.

IMO Indians should be particularly different from BD,SL,Pak fans..up to you brah.

[The Outsider]

IMO Indians should be particularly different from BD' date='SL,Pak fans..up to you brah.[/quote'] True maybe you can lead by example by not obsessing about speeds and speed guns in every other thread.

[Cricketics]

IMO Indians should be particularly different from BD' date='SL,Pak fans..up to you brah.[/quote'] I am totally different from bd, sl, pakfans and even other Indian cricket fans. I am UNIQUE FAN which one will never be like and one you or anyone can't even emulate also. Thanks

I didn't mind the way he went out. Better that then when he goes into a shell before dying a slow death. We do need a new Captain, ideally one person for all 3 formats.

I think it should be the opposite.. we should have 3 captains for each format.. better yet.. scrap T20 format all together and go back to the good old days of cricket.
