So now Ishant has "bowled a good spell without taking wickets" in ODIs as well. Trifecta awaiting.

Final score is below par and probably not enough against India but at least we have given ourselves something to bowl at..really disappointed with our middle order and have to say I can't see how prasana is in this team. He simply doesn't appear to have the cricketing brain to adapt his batting. I would like to see the order as Dilshan,Kushal,Sanga,Mathews,Mahela,Tharanga,Priyanjan,Thisara, Prasad,Randiv,Gamage . I want to see more "proper" batsmen in the top seven rather than relying on pinch hitters..great knock from Msthews and really well supported by prasad who showed the mental strength that those above him didn't..,

The four from Rahane off the second ball of the inning - always uncomfortable how away from the body he plays.

India are sheer favourites currently. Sri Lanka needs to break this partnership or else they may end up being the losing team again!

Rahane edges it trying to play a ball way outside off. It is only a matter of time before bowlers just keep bowling him outside off to get him out. Has to improve on this.

Indians are terrible against swing aren't they? Moves a bit and goes right past Dhawan. It's not like it doesn't swing at all in Australia. Who is to say bowlers won't capitalise on this weakness shown up in England.

Rayudu at 3. Awesome. Hope he makes a good one.

Cuts it for four. What a cut, what a player. :wub:

@OS Rayudu has far better techniques than Raina, Rohit Sharma and even Dhawan I would say. I can't fathom how any one can say he has awful technique. Which parts of his technique do you not like?

Fantastic presence of mind from Mahela to help his best mate out and remove Rahane..we just got robbed by oxenford...

Absolutely, been a really good year for him. The only thing that was missing from today was an explosion of boundaries towards the end, but that's not meant as a criticism of Mathews more a compliment to how the Indian bowlers bowled to him. Deserved a hundred, kept a great temperament throughout despite losing wickets at the other end fairly regularly after the Sanga partnership and in that middle period took calculated risks to find the boundaries. Very decent knock.

His stance is horrendous, his bat face closes virtually every time he tries to play a drive, but the worst thing is his shot selection. It's just embarassing the shots he plays and gets out to sometimes.

I don't know why you say Rohit's technique is worse. I think it's fine, he just spoils it by being extremely stupid.
