Good days have returned for Sri Lanka cricket, these three positive things happened for the Lankan team amidst the series win

Sri Lanka won the bilateral series against India after 27 years. Srilanka Cricket (Pic Source-X) Sri Lanka defeated India by 110 runs in the third ODI played on 7 August and won this spectacular series by 2-0. Sri Lankan players performed very well in this entire series. Not only this, Sri Lanka won the bilateral series against India after 27 years. The best thing for Sri Lanka in this ODI series was that their spinners bowled very well and put pressure on the Indian team’s batsmen. India’s batsmen failed to make a mark in this series. The Sri Lankan team will be very happy with its performance. With this, today we tell you about three positive things that were seen in this historic ODI series win for Sri Lanka. 1- Strength in the top order Avishka Fernando (Pic Source-X) In this series, there was a lot of pressure on the top 3 batsmen of Sri Lanka because the team’s performance against the Indian bowlers has been very poor in the recent past. However, in this ODI series, the trio of Avishka Fernando, Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis batted very well and did not lose their wickets quickly against the Indian bowlers. In the first two ODIs, one of these three batsmen batted for about 20 to 25 overs and scored runs consistently for the team. In the third and final ODI, all three batsmen troubled the Indian team’s fast bowlers a lot. In the third ODI, Avishka Fernando played a match-winning innings of 96 runs while Kusal Mendis scored 59 runs. Pathum Nissanka played an innings of 45 runs.

“I don’t remember the last time this happened”- Aakash Chopra on Virat Kohli’s poor performance

(Photo Source: Sony Liv) India’s star batsman Virat Kohli scored 24, 14 and 20 runs respectively in the recently concluded three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka and interestingly, he got out against spinners in all the matches. Meanwhile, former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra said, Kohli, who is known to be a very good player of spin, misread the line and length against them. Virat Kohli was out LBW in all the matches of the ODI series against Sri Lanka and every time a review was taken on the ball of his dismissal. ODI series In the first match, Wanindu Hasaranga dismissed him, while Jeffrey Vandersay and Dunith Welalage took his wickets in the second and third matches respectively. Kohli’s struggle against spin is not new. In the last few years, he has struggled a lot against wrist spinners and this trend continued in the Sri Lanka series as well. Aakash Chopra gave a big statement about Virat Kohli Regarding this, Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube channel, “Virat Kohli was LBW three times in three innings against spinners. I don’t remember when this happened last time, he was playing the wrong line and also used the review every time. He was not able to put pressure on the bowlers with his batting in the series.” The cricketer-turned-commentator also spoke about Shreyas Iyer, who has also struggled in the series. Iyer made his debut after being dropped from BCCI’s central contract but failed to make a mark in the three-match series. He had a great chance to perform well and cement his place in the squad for the Champions Trophy 2025, but Iyer scored only 38 runs in the series. Speaking about this, Chopra said that he is not sure why good spin players are struggling. He said, “Shreyas Iyer is considered a good player of spin, but he too was unable to counter the spinners twice and got out due to speed once. If the performance of our good spin players is like this, then I don’t know why this is happening.”

This happened for the first time in Virat Kohli’s international career, the Indian batsman would like to completely forget the ODI series against Sri Lanka

In the third ODI, Virat Kohli once again failed to score big and was out after scoring 20 runs. Virat Kohli (Pic Source-X) The Indian team is currently playing the third and final match of the three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.

Let us tell you, in the third ODI, Virat Kohli once again failed to score big and was out after scoring 20 runs. His wicket was taken by Dunith Wellage in this match. Let us tell you, Virat Kohli has been LBW in all three matches in this series.

In the first match played between these two teams, Virat Kohli was LBW by Wanindu Hasaranga. In the first ODI, Virat Kohli was out after scoring 24 runs. In the second ODI too, the Indian batsman failed to score big and returned to the pavilion after scoring 14 runs. In this match, he was the victim of Jerrfey Vandersay who got him LBW. Now something similar was seen with Virat Kohli in the third match as well. Virat Kohli could not understand Dunith Wellage’s excellent ball at all and was LBW. The Indian team is in a very disappointing position in the third ODI Let us tell you, in the last match, Sri Lanka batted first and scored 248 runs in 50 overs by losing 7 wickets. The Indian team which came out to chase the target is in a very bad condition at the moment. Sri Lanka is leading 1-0 in this 3 match ODI series. The first match played between the two teams ended in a tie while Sri Lanka won the second match by 32 runs. Now the host will definitely want to win this final match as well. The host’s performance in the T20 series was quite poor but they have made a very good comeback in the ODI series. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

Bad news: Will India lose the match against SA? What happened a few hours before the final that created an atmosphere of fear

Former all-rounder of the 1983 World Cup winning team, Kirti Azad, has shared his thoughts on India’s game plan for the final. South Africa (Pic SOURCE-X) IND vs SA Final: The final match of T20 World Cup 2024 between India and South Africa (IND vs SA Final) will be played in Barbados on Saturday 29 July. Team India is just 1 match away from ending its 11-year trophy drought. However, winning the trophy is not going to be that easy because Team India is facing a big team like South Africa. Let us tell you that South Africa is always called chokers. This is because they play well throughout the tournament but get eliminated in the semi-finals. Till date, they have not been able to reach the final in the history of T20 World Cup, this is their first final. In such a situation, the fear is that South Africa has broken its label of chokers. At the same time, the story of Team India losing in most of the finals is haunting the fans that South Africa may win this T20 World Cup. Keep this plan in the final against South Africa: Kirti Azad Former all-rounder of the 1983 World Cup winning team, Kirti Azad, has shared his thoughts on India’s game plan for the final. “It is very difficult to talk about South Africa because they will be playing in the final of any ICC tournament for the first time. They were also called chokers because they always lost in the semi-finals, so it will be difficult to predict how they will perform in the final. But yes, they will do their best to win and India will have to be careful that they do not become overconfident and we do not lose. The hope is that we put up a good score.” Kirti Azad further said for IND vs SA Final- “As we saw the pitches last time in the semi-finals, the ball was not bouncing much and was staying low. We have to be careful and give them a good target. We have to make South Africa choke.” “I was confident that the way the Indian team is, we will perform well and win the World Cup. The performance of all the players has been excellent, especially bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel are bowling well. India’s bowling attack is the best. The biggest plus point for our team is Rohit’s batting.”
