TheWall Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 As of now SL But they r still yet to won a test match in India...
Cricket_Hacker Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 SL got away with a 2 test series India played the first 2 matches much better than Sri Lanka And of course india is much more dominant at home We are still the best test team from the SC However SL are better in the ODI format
great siri Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 I think in the SC' date=' India are a tough side to beat. I would stick my neck out and say India will beat SL in the SC (and we won't be playing tests outside, so who's to say who's better?)[/quote'] really ??? for god sake u have not won a test series in srilanka for last 25 years .even when india was the number 1 team in 2010 it was a draw 1 all after murali retired after the first game which we won .on current form except in india we can beat india in a test series anywhere in world and yes i would stick my neck out n say that .
great siri Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 SA had just beaten SL at home. sa everytime beats india in home .eng has beaten india in home .that series we were extremely unlucky due to many many incidents .20 overs were lost due to rain in the 2nd test .eranga was innjured in the 1st test .philander tampered with the balls etc etc .on current form if sa will play ind in ind in a test series they will whoop u 3 nil .

First win a match in India.. then lets talk about other place...
great siri Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 anyways my eyes r really really moist seeing mahela for the last time .one part of my childhood died today

Anymore excuses???????
Emperor2kings Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 First win a match in India.. then lets talk about other place... We'll see.
div Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Yes, India got tougher pitches,stats can be misleading.
undisputed chap Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 I would rank it as : Sri Lanka India A Pakistan Afghanisthan Bangladesh Hongkong . . . . . . . India
adi B Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 SA had just beaten SL at home. so?saffies are damn good travelers and i think they can beat us at home.srilanka could have easily won the second test. by the way we lost to england at home,lankans drew 1-1
Cricket_Hacker Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 so?saffies are damn good travelers and i think they can beat us at home.srilanka could have easily won the second test. by the way we lost to england at home,lankans drew 1-1 Lankans lost to Australia at home,we beat them 4-0 They lost a test to NZ as well!
thongale Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Yes' date=' India got tougher pitches,stats can be misleading.[/quote']Care to explain how your fast bowlers looked pedestrian compared to ours?
adi B Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 really ??? for god sake u have not won a test series in srilanka for last 25 years .even when india was the number 1 team in 2010 it was a draw 1 all after murali retired after the first game which we won .on current form except in india we can beat india in a test series anywhere in world and yes i would stick my neck out n say that . blatant lies.india won the test series in lanka in 93,hows that 25 years. in the last 3 tours to lanka,we have won at least a test match in each tour.srilanka have never won a test match in india so suck on that!!
Cricket_Hacker Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Care to explain how your fast bowlers looked pedestrian compared to ours? your lot played 2 matches.We played 5
adi B Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 sa everytime beats india in home .eng has beaten india in home .that series we were extremely unlucky due to many many incidents .20 overs were lost due to rain in the 2nd test .eranga was innjured in the 1st test .philander tampered with the balls etc etc .on current form if sa will play ind in ind in a test series they will whoop u 3 nil . again blatant lies,in their last 3 tours to india in the last decade,saf have drawn 2 series,lost 1 series in india.england won their 1st series after almost 30 years in india. india have lost just 3 home series in the last 25 years at home,including 6 series win vs aus(which lanka can only dream off),3 series win vs england,2 vs saf,4 vs lanka,now that is called home dominance!!
kirisatha96 Posted August 18, 2014 Author Posted August 18, 2014 To even dispute the fact that SL have been the best sub-continent side in 2014, you must be insane.
jf1gp_1 Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 SL work well as a unit and committed sadly for them with mahela and sanga retired or on the verge of retiring they cant be labelled best team. I still think we are the best sub continent team.
