India's Srilankan Massacres

[vvvslaxman]

This is a fun topic :cantstop: For years i was cringing at Lungans for beating us with Jayasuriya. We have been nicely returning the favor. Kohli 133* (86) ROhit 264 (225) Ganguly 183(158) Dhoni 183* (145) Viru 146(102) Srikkanth 95(66)

Also hold on a second it is not 264(225) it is 264(173) :whack: infact the last 212 runs came from 100 odd balls

[Cricket_Hacker]

50(72) 100(100) 264(173) Last 50 from 15 balls

That Sachin-Ganguly 252 partnership too. Probably the best of the lot

My most satisfying was Ganguly/Dravid 300 plus partnership in world cup. We returned the favor in grand style.. Ranatunga was just short of crying the post match conference. HE said "This is the most pathetic bowling i have ever seen" :hysterical: That was a priceless moment. Ganguly was whacking one ball after another into the river.

Rohit Sharma scored 13 runs in 5 innings in a series vs SRL in 2012 RG Sharma (India) 5 5 0 13 5 2.60 37 35.13 anyone remembers that? i think this is nice revenge for him on a personal level.

This. But why the scorecard shows the tourney as 'Singer-Akai Nidahas Trophy'. I thought it was the SL Independence Cup

Rayudu, Rahane, Dhawan all have bashed this attack. So not exactly a revenge. Revenge is doing in their own den.

people don't remember this much http://www.espncricinfo.com/slvind2009/engine/current/match/386532.html very rarely have yuvraj and sehwag batted together and this time they were simply murdering the lungans they put 220 runs in 28 overs and took score to 240 plus in 32 overs after which rest of the guys could take score to only 365 :) and yes this was not at home but in SL to set up series win

This match is where we turned the tables. Till then, we were losing left, right and center against SL for 2-2.5 years.

Viru did these beastly ODI act in tests lol. Remember his 293.

Dhoni played the consolidator role from Overs 35 to 50, in that match. MS Dhoni*† not out 35 70 45 1 0 77.77

[bowl_out]

Dhoni's 183 was merciless... insane hitting that was... Rohit's innings was more classy, more timing than power

Imagine the level of uber owning that the man handed to the collective memory of a nation the size of India must be so huge that it is only now after such severe beatings it appears to subside a bit.
