India's Tour of Sri Lanka

[nikhil_99]

Zaheer and Preaveen kumar has done a fabulous job,Zaheer has ryhthem while Praveen can swing the ball more and confuse batsman.good job,just one more win and seal the series now.

Ahh man, I wish at least the fifth match was on a weekend so I could watch it. If not the weekend, I wish it was a Day match. I'm going to miss both the remaining matches . I can only watch the first two and a half hours at most, before I have to go to school.

What great batting by Mahela. I thought he would win the match for SL. One thing is clear, it was because of Zaheer's and Praveen's early wickets India won this match.

Punish Mendis' delivery to bring him under pressure: Dhoni

Indians must get on the top of their Sri Lankan nemesis Ajantha Mendis by punishing him for his bad deliveries to bring him under pressure, says Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

"It is more about him (Mendis). If he bowls a bad ball then punish him and build up pressure on him. If you continue to defend him then you know he will also be on top," Dhoni said.

"It is very important that whenever he bowled a bad bowl we will get runs out of them so that you know he (Mendis) gets under a bit of pressure," Dhoni said after winning the match by 33 runs to take 2-1 lead in the five-match series.

Easy for him to say,but difficult to implement though!!!. It is a good strategy to attack but one has to be very watch ful,a very intersting match ahead...

But one has to notice, Mendis never loses his cool, hit him for a boundary and he comes up with a jaffa the next delivery.

we need to mental disintegrate him-aussie style. too bad we suck at it.

It looks a jaffa because the batsmen dont read him properly. But now with more experience of playing him in the middle, we're improving and if Dhoni and his team follows the tactic of punishing his bad deliveries and fending off his 'so called' jaffas, he should be flustered and his temperament will be tested. He is quite new to the scene and is not the perfect temperament guy

look I think India have done bad in this tour against Sri Lanka because they just beat Sri Lanka in the last 2 games.
they should have been 3-0 down and lost the series but they just about beat Sri Lanka in the last 2 games.
India need to pull there socks up in the next game.

 

[sohum]

Lettuce finish em.

Is your head cracked up?

Why should India pull up their socks? They're one win away from a series win. Its Sri Lanka and their top order who need to pull up their socks. India have done well in this ODI series despite having to face the threat of mendis and murali. they have fielded poorly, but they have more than made up for it with good bowling and decent batting displays.

Its time for India to finish it off,but that needs team effort and also confidence,take it step by step and dont think too much.
GO for it.
