I second you. Let's investigate every time a team falter after a good performance. I am sure you want to get the recently concluded SA-ENG test investigated as well. England played so well on the first day and then just surrendered. They must've definitely sold out.

And people investigate only no-balls. Such a huge conspiracy against Pakistan and Muslims. Life is so not for fair for you guys, no?

[Sidcricfan]

Good job by Ojha to keep rotating the strike and not give his wkt away.

[cricketworm]

Did we take batting powerplay yet?

[Bullet Drive]

Beauty, where is Russel Arnold?

[Bullet Drive]

Ojha goes.

[cricketworm]

There goes Ojha .... LOL We won't even reach 150!

[Bullet Drive]

In comes Yadav now..

[freelance_cricketer]

Come on Gambo.

[x-man]

When match start lot of post from Velu Bhai....! Now he silenced. Come on dude. Take it easy !!!!

[Asif321]

lol .. pakistans batting was better

[cricketfan86]

138 all out

[cricketworm]

We need mega double hattrick to win this LOL

[freelance_cricketer]

LOL yeh kya hogya

[Bullet Drive]

Malinga finally does well against India.

[avidlearner]

After 8 hours of power cut, just switched on the TV to see the match and saw the score to be 138 and falling of final wicket that's of Gambhir. Looks like our batters were pathetic in this game. Also our team's regular tormentor Perera has done the job for SL once again it seems.

I guess its safe to say that 1-1 coming up

[cricketworm]

Zak with the wides

well game to be over in 25 overs ... nothing to see I guess.

[style_guru]

Lol the next question should be, in how many overs shall SL complete the victory??

My take: 23 overs max.

@ Indian batting

[LegCutter]

Dont worry Indian brothers, Umesh Yadav hai na, kis cheez ka darr

[Runner Up]

What the hell has happened? bundled out in just 33.3 overs? How's pitch behaving?

[Bilal7]

Well well, this series just got a lot more interesting. Indian bowlers have a chance to show their worth here, lets see how well Yadav handles pressure.

Bad at office for Indian batters...

Happens sometimes. Everyone fails inexplicably at the same time.

This is the same team that has been batting brilliantly against Lankans for the past few years.

Time to Fail for once

Jadea and sachin might have made big difference to our scorecard

Nobody could have saved us today.

Indians have been scoring in excess of 300 against Lankans almost everytime they play. Law of averages takes its effect.

One worrying thing is, Kohli seems to have become the new Sachin. Indian seems to rely too much on him now. We have done exceptionally well since Kohli has been playing out of his mind.

[Rizwan25]

Yaduv ki pheenti lag rhi hay!!!

[Wristy_Shuffler]

Tony Grieg on commentary is absolutely loving it.

[Gotham Cronie]

That marks 50 overs played in the match. What time does SL's inning begin? Oh wait...

[Yuri]

What a thrashing ! Tony made it worse..

[cricketworm]

[cricketworm]

Time to drop Nohit.

[avidlearner]

Morning, I was cursing the Tamilnadu Electricity board for long power cut but thank god, I did not have to endure those painfully inept batting moments of our team today (afetr power came, did not try to watch the chase. So escaped from Tony's verbal diarrhea)

[zahid02]

7.30pm: This is India's second worst defeat in terms of balls remaining (181). Their worst was also against SL, 209 balls in Dambulla in 2010. Let's not forget that hammering in Sharjah where they were bowled out for 54, though they were chasing on that occasion. Just shows how Sri Lanka have roasted India in the past.

In Sharjah match Sanath made 189 and India was all-out for mere 54..

Stop getting your panties in a twist.

I always take "miracle" results involving Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka and to some extent SA with a pinch of salt.

Maybe, but almost all of the matches the gap between both team were very small.

[LastLaugh_PK]

So who was going to whitewash who?

[LegCutter]

India will bounce back, this was just an anomaly. No way Perera will be able to repeat this again anytime soon....or will he?

Perera did it against Pakistan and will be a threat again for India in the next 3 ODI's as well....It was painful to view the Indian fold like a pack of cards with no direction at all.....

I pity you; life must be really tough for you. Always looking for conspiracies, match-fixing angles and what not. BTW if you are convinced of cheating in cricket, why do you still follow it?
