Great 2nd day for the Lankans.
Sri Lanka vs. India
- Thread starter mehro
- Start date
Yep
What's this nonsense about appealing to the third umpire though? Dont agree with it at all.

Is this a "hated rivalry" type of game?
No. That would be India v Pakistan.
That I know, I used to live in Pakistan. But is Sri Lanka also a hated rival of India, or a bit less so?
Erm No. There is no rivalry as such between India and SRL.
Unless you hate the Sri Lankan team for being extremely boring.
India take a pummelling.
Now Dilshan is on the threshold of a century. He is on 89 and making merry.

Lunch in Lanka. SL 552-6.
Dilshan 102 n.o. Fourth batsman to get a century in the same innings.

Sri-Lanka India series are only next to watching paint dry. The only reason they're played is for batsmen to set new records.
We should develop a rivalry so that the fecking teams atleast try to win.

Shit Match, and Lankans seem to have an Average team and yet they some how beat almost everyone that comes in their path. Except for the Aussies offcourse.
Shame your top order won't be setting new records any time soon. Murali and Mendis bowling in tandem, a sight to behold.
I have to say I didn't see this collapse coming.
Credit to Murali, from what I read both Sachin and Ganguly were dealing well with the spin but he did not relent and only one false shot was enough to dismiss them.

Must be tough when only one team is out to set new records eh?
Murali and Mendis looking good !
Embarassing...
How could this have happened?
cnuts the lot of them
indian cricket team = english football team
fecking overhyped bottlers

Mendis' 'carrom ball'
you'll see loads of kids bowling that near the beach here while playing tennis ball cricket

This guy Mendis is really something special. 6 wickets again including Gambhir, Dravid and Laxman. All quality players of spin.
What a sad batting scorecard for the Indian team. Well done, Sehwag.
well done, mehro.
Thanks. You should say that everyday.
maybe I will, mehro, maybe I will...
Time for Ganguly, Dravid and Tendulkar to call it a day
Sehwag is kind of inhuman, isn't he?
He's not so good. The only reason he's scoring so many is due to shit pitches. He's not a patch on Sachin or Dravid
wtf ? sachin and dravid are past it.
sehwag is class...
I'm obviously comparing their primes. A past it Sachin was the top scorer in Australia, which Sehwag can only dream of.
Sehwag's a big time flat track bully. Great to watch, though.
my thoughts exactly, although I think Sachin and Ganguly are/were more watchable.
fair point....but sehwag can play long innings thats why he scores double and triple hundreds which sachin cant while having a superior technique
Maybe
Still need to get some freshness into that team. Either that or just ban cricket in India for a couple of years, my preferred option.
Without those three and Laxman, our test team will play like a twenty-twenty team. Just bang the ball as hard as you can.
Sachin in his prime, definitely. Not sure about Ganguly, though.
Ganguly was great to watch around 1999-2001. He turned a bit slow and lazy since then.
captaincy affected his batting
He was a great captain though
Why the feck did you delete that post?
