***Official*** India's Tour of Sri Lanka 2017

[harsh.ag]

Hyped for this! The tour was initially supposed to have a solitary test, but has been since expanded to include 3 tests. Fatteh vs Pujara!

5 more of those famous Ind-SL ODIs

 

[vcs]

We just went there a couple of years ago, why don't we have them over..

Anyway, I somehow sense an upset in this series. Hope Ashwin gets his groove back, a lot will depend on how he performs.

 

[harsh.ag]

Fatteh and Jadeja to battle it out for the key position of World's Premier Slow Left Arm Orthodox Spinner (WPSLAOS[SUP]TM[/SUP])

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Are they going to unleash the Pant?

Or does DK stay on?

 

[honestbharani]

Its tests first mate. We will unleash The Saha.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Oh, whenever they decide to do that, it will be in India on a wicket that will scream 'runs'

Wow this one is stickied already with a good 2 weeks to go while the Zim-SL thread had to wait for the 3rd ODI.

CW mods are more blatant than Sanjay Manjrekar in commentary box

Maybe because a mod started this one..

So a long way from Rameez Raja even now. That's good IMO.

That's really unfair...no one can be as bad as that dude in the Comms box...

 

[CricAddict]

Happy with the Indian team selection. The strongest squad from the current lot. Anything less than a series win will be a major disappointment.

 

[honestbharani]

So apparently we go there for a full tour - Tests, ODIs and T20Is and then they return this year for a similar full tour. Not sure if this was done as a back up in case Oz don show up but still, I hope they do not reduce the RSA series to play SL at home.

 

[cnerd123]

yea I'm backing SL to win this after losing to Zim

 

[YorksLanka]

really annoyed as the board have now changed the itinerary. the first ODI is now Dambulla and the last one is at RPS. I was going to go and watch the first one while I was in SL but dambulla is miles from us and the one in Colombo is the same day we fly home

 

[Bahseph]

Is Prasad done? Any chance of a return?

 

[YorksLanka]

I wish but can't see it..

 

[harsh.ag]

Murali Vijay out of the tour. Shikhar Dhawan to open with KL.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Vijay will be a loss but don't mind Dhawan at all.

 

[Black_Warrior]

Expect Pujara to bat and bat and bat in this series

 

[honestbharani]

Murali Vijay out of the tour. Shikhar Dhawan to open with KL.

But wasn't Mukund already in the squad? I dont rate him either but I think in the long run, he might become something approaching a good opener. Plus Shikhar and KL have very similar styles and it might end being a lot of boom or bust opening partnerships for us.
