India and Sri Lanka Cricket Match - After Game Review

Now visiting the fast bowler Ishant Sharma took four wickets for 56 runs from his nine overs and Praveen Kumar, Zaheer Khan and Pragyan Ojha chipped single wicket each. Only one player that sent the Indian team in vain was Thilina Kandamby, who bated brilliantly at 93 unbeaten. The final moments were tensed all because of the romp nightmare that Kandamby gave to the Indian bowlers. With this match India has successfully registered another consecutive win in the One day International Matches.

Bolstered by two consecutive victories, the confident Indian Team is all ready to warp up the five match series when they take on Sri Lanka in the third One Day International match on 3rd February. Now Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s team members are not willing to take any chance under the present floodlight situation after they have just managed a close 15 run win with a nail-biting day-night match at the Premdassa Stadium on Saturday.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni has led the team in the consecutive seven successive ODI wins and has now warned his teammates that if they drop out against any of their guards, they would lead the Indian Cricket Team in a big trouble.

This match witnessed a few chinks in the Indian armour when the bowlers looked confused in their power play overs and the captain wanted the bowlers to show a more disciplined act of their performance.

The batting of the Indian Team has also not fired but to be fair, some umpiring decisions were unsporting and they created a sense of unethicalness in the Indian Team. The top order batsmen have to get into the act quickly if they hope to clinch the series in the upcoming match on 3rd February itself.

The ongoing series could be decided on Tuesday night and the play of Indian players in the second ODI demonstrates that the team is in no mood to relent as they are in a compete mood to deliver a knockout for the Srilankan Team. Their intent was evident in the second ODI and they are very much in a position to script one more victory.

Opening super batsman Sachin Tendulkar has not fired yet and nor Zaheer Khan has been in his elements. Both these players are expected to give contributions to their team be small or big, to let their reach that eventually prove decisive. The only pitfall that Indian team displayed in this second ODI was fretfulness and every one is praying for the Indian team to become persuaded of their win, in order to accomplish it and that too self-confidently. Let’s all hope that India creates a cricket results history and make all Indians blissful.
