India vs Sri Lanka

The third match of the Sri Lanka vs India ODI series has started. Sri Lanka won the toss in all three matches in the ODI series. Today also Sri Lanka decided to bat after winning the toss like in the first two matches. So far Sri Lanka have collected 94 runs for the loss of 1 wicket in 22 overs. Sri Lanka's two opening batsmen are both batting patiently, but already Pathum Nissanka could not score a half-century due to 5 runs, he was dismissed for 45 runs. Avishka Fernando remains unbeaten on 46 runs. If Sri Lanka can score 250+ today then the match will be very competitive. Let's see how many runs Sri Lanka can score in the end.

At the moment I am enjoying the game, Sri Lanka's current score is 188 runs in 40 overs for four wickets. Kusal Mendis and Avishka Fernando's second-wicket partnership finished at 171 run, with Avishka Fernando missing out on a century by just four runs. If Sri Lanka can keep wickets in the last 10 overs then I expect them to cross 265 plus. Sri Lanka leads the series 1-0, if they lose they will end the series with a draw. Run chasing  for India can be difficult if we analyze the previous matches. Three matches in the ODI series are being held at the same venue and as per the performance of the last two matches, Sri Lanka are performing very well in today's match, if they can score good runs in the last ten overs, the match will go in Sri Lanka's favor and Sri Lanka will be win the series.

Pakistan A vs Bangladesh A

Well Pakistani A team are looking far away better from Bangladesh A team because Pakistan has currently several PSL talented player which really doing good for his team and through their contribution Pakistan register decent results, it's true that Bangladesh has some too but not matching the strength of them. Anyway things were looking balanced especially when Bangladesh won the first test match and then Pakistan level it by winning the second one and then I think due to rain or some other issue first odi got abundant while Pakistan got lead in second odi which a huge margin and for that credit completely goes to Pakistani bowling lineup because through their hard line and length they get the main player before add some significant contribution and thus Pakistan get them entire on a very small target and won the match.

On this ground, Sir Dinda had the worst record for Indian bowlers, now Miyan surpassed him. Earlier Miyan used to take Lankans to the cleaners but not on this tour, talk about legacy. 

Going by the trajectory of this series, the scoreline already looks above par to me but the Indians went with the extra batter (Total 9 lol) so should be another close encounter.

Today also Sri Lanka decided to bat after winning the toss like in the first two matches. So far Sri Lanka have collected 94 runs for the loss of 1 wicket in 22 overs.

Yes, today is the final match of the ODI series between host Sri Lanka and visiting India. But in today's match as well, we have seen the Indian team's batting line-up drop in their performance. India had already collected 72 runs and their top four experienced batsmen were out and returned to the dressing room. In this situation of the game, India has already gone on the back foot from this match. What they need right now is to patiently put up a strong innings so that their team can reach the port of victory based on that innings. Moreover, it may not be possible for the Indian team to win this match.

India is already trailing Sri Lanka by losing one match in this series, if Sri Lanka win today they will beat India by two nil to win the ODI series. If that happens, it will be a great honor for Sri Lanka, as they have already been whitewashed by India in the T20 series.

Are they keeping boundaries short? The boundary line is dragged far away from the banners than it should be.


Meanwhile, I just checked the scorecard and India is 95-6, I can't believe my eyes. Lmao TF!???!

[Out of mind]

Today I would really like to give credit to the Sri Lankan playing performance that they have developed such a beautiful game in ODI matches. In the T20 series we have seen that Sri Lanka team performed very poorly against India but in the ODI match they are playing brilliantly against India. Sri Lanka scored 248 runs in 3rd ODI match, losing 7 wickets, and I am very happy to see today's score which is such a good batting performance in Sri Lanka. However, in order to meet the target of 249 runs, India gave a very poor batting performance, they lost their important wickets very soon and are currently under pressure. Collecting 100 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in 16 overs, today's match Sri Lanka team is doing a great bowling performance due to which India is under a lot of pressure. Dunith Wellalage he took four wickets and India might lose to Sri Lanka due to this great bowling performance today.

Srilanka vs India 3rd ODI

So today is the 3rd and the final match between India and Srilanka. So this will be very interesting match because first match was tied. And the second match was also interesting and the Srilanka comeback surprised everyone and they won the last match. So today match will be tough because India will try to tie the series and Srilanka will try to win the series so this match is really important for both teams. My best wishes are with Srilanka because India has won the T20 series and Srilanka deserves to win this.

So far I can easily say congratulations to the Sri Lanka team, they won the series of ODI. I know the match is in progress but the condition of the match for the Indian team is not good and for sure, the Sri Lanka is going to win this match as well.


 
Remember it is the last match of this series and this is the time for the Sri Lanka team to beat India in a full series after many years. The last time before this series was when they won a single match against India that was back in 21st July 2021 in an ODI but this time after so many years, they won the matches against India. The last match of the series is here and the results are again unexpected.

Meanwhile, I just checked the scorecard and India is 95-6, I can't believe my eyes. Lmao TF!???!

I haven't seen such awful batting by Indian batsmen in a long time. The Indian team performed well in the first two matches of the T20 series. But since then India's bad batting started. Indian players have batted very poorly in both the ODI matches. The first match was a draw and Sri Lanka won the second match. I know it is difficult to bat well in the second innings on this pitch. But every batsman in India is very experienced. So it is hard to accept that India won't even win a single match in the series.

But India is a bit unlucky. It is difficult for Colombo to bat well in the second innings on this pitch. But in every match, India batted in the second innings and as usual batted badly. Sri Lanka's three top order batsmen batted very well in today's match. This is why Sri Lanka managed to score a big total of 248.

But every batsman in India batted badly. At the end of 26 overs, India collected 138 runs and India lost 9 wickets. I think India will lose by 100 runs. Gill, Iyer and Pant could not bat well in any match of this series.

[libert19]

Whatever, hopefully SL continues their good form because the world cricket desperately needs more competition. For India it's meaningless bilateral loss, but they also needs to take lessons. Idk what went wrong, such collapse (until 9th India could bat) with big names being there!?

I think the Indian team management and the team made the wrong decisions when they understood Shubman Gill was not performing and also not good performance is here by Shivam Dube.

They could not replace to Virat Kohli because he is the big name of the team, then they had to replace Shubman Gill and give a chance to Pant instead, but they out KL Rahul who gave his best in IPL, and then he dropped in T20 series also for World Cup and by chance select for this ODI series, but they also not giving him chances to play and Rishabh Pant his playing on his place. It is not justice, by the way, Rishabh Pant was only able to make 6 runs in this chase.

By the way today Washington Sundar played 10 times better than the other players in his team. Today he played at the level of Rohit Sharma and made some important runs for the team but until that time, they were not needy of those runs because the Indian team accepted their loss.

The Sri-Lankan team proved very hard for the India team to beat. I think in the place of Shubman Gill, Washington Sundar could be very great option to give him chance there to bat and open the innings but now the ODI series has finished and the Indian team progress in this series was very disappointment indeed.

I am very surprised by the performance of Indian players in this series. In the T20 series, the squad was made up of young Indian players. Still, India's young players performed brilliantly and won the first two matches. The final match was a tight one, but India won in the end.

The Indian squad for the ODI series has experienced players like Rohit, Kohli, Rahul and Kuldeep back in the squad. The Indian squad has become stronger. So we expected India to dominate this ODI series. But this is not the case. We have seen the dominance of Sri Lanka in the ODI series. And the interesting thing is that India did not win a single match. This is really a shame for a big team like India. I thought India would win the last match and draw the series. But India lost the last match by 110 runs.

[Bitcoin_people]

India were bowled out for 138 It was really funny that a strong team like India lost badly against Sri Lanka. Although I thought today's match against Sri Lanka maybe India will try hard enough to win but they could not succeed. In today's match, Sri Lankan team players have given great batting and bowling performance, their current game performance is really interesting. However, the way the Indian team has been performing since the beginning of the ODI match is not acceptable at all, if they cannot improve their game, then the upcoming matches will definitely be more difficult for them. Where India beat Sri Lanka badly in the T20 match, the Sri Lankan team is beating India badly in the ODI match and took the series.

[libert19]

I think in the place of Shubman Gill, Washington Sundar could be very great option to give him chance there to bat and open the innings but now the ODI series has finished and the Indian team progress in this series was very disappointment indeed.

Lol, Gill might not be having good time but to have Washington open is just bad lmao. Also, there are plenty other batters competing for top order spots, so that's impossible scenario anyhow.

The team is not dependent on the names, it is a game of performance. If you do not perform you could be out of the team no matter whether you are Virat Kohli or anyone else.
This is the rule that should be in every team but it is not here in this Indian team. You are completely right about your statement, Virat Kohli is not in form, they have to give him rest but the power of name, also it is their wish to make Virat Kohli play every game if he is in the squad as if he would not play then the people of India will insist that they want to see him in action in every match.

India vs Sri Lanka

The third match of the Sri Lanka vs India ODI series has started. Sri Lanka won the toss in all three matches in the ODI series. Today also Sri Lanka decided to bat after winning the toss like in the first two matches. So far Sri Lanka have collected 94 runs for the loss of 1 wicket in 22 overs. Sri Lanka's two opening batsmen are both batting patiently, but already Pathum Nissanka could not score a half-century due to 5 runs, he was dismissed for 45 runs. Avishka Fernando remains unbeaten on 46 runs. If Sri Lanka can score 250+ today then the match will be very competitive. Let's see how many runs Sri Lanka can score in the end.

For those who have seen the first two matches, this match will be very interesting.  Because this match will decide who will win this series.  And judging by its performance, India is looking very weak.  Because their batsmen do not meet the target.  And if you look at this target, if you score 248 runs in 50 overs, then this target is nothing compared to India's performance.  But still she looks very weak.  In fact, their batsmen want to set pace with poor performance, but due to pressure, they get out and lose the match if they fail to meet the target.  I didn't expect Sri Lanka to win this match but they worked hard and put India under pressure and won the match.  I had told Sri Lanka in their second match that India will not be silent but Sri Lanka have really silenced them.  Congratulations to Sri Lanka.

If you talk about justice, then there is only one player Sanju Samson, who never performed in the matches as he got a chance in the T20 series but no performance still after 100 dismissals, if he played good in one match of IPL or any other small match then justice! justice! justice! for him.

Justice for Sanju Samson!!!!! is bieng the talk on the social media.
 
He is a league bully, he would never ever be able to play the International matches and whenever they gave him a chance he do not avail the chance. He played two T20 matches and zero in both the games. But he is the favourite of the head coach then we will see him in the next series and once again we will see his bad performances,

I agree with you. Indian management has major faults. Rohit and Kohli cannot be replaced. Although they have performed poorly in a few matches, they are needed in the squad. Because both are very experienced players. Moreover, despite Kohli's performance being erratic, Rohit Sharma managed to bat well in every match. So there was a need to keep these two players in the squad.

But I don't understand why Shubman Gill, Iyer and Shivam Dube were kept in the squad in all three matches. These three batsmen have batted badly in all three matches. As the Indian team management had options for these players. So they should have hoped for a change in the squad in the last match. Had the squad made changes, and given opportunities to young players, perhaps the Indian team would not have been beaten by a huge margin of 110 runs in the last match. Indian management is also responsible for such defeat of India.
