He had all time to get settled yesterday though, albeit it was pressure situation.

Well.. I can agree. But it was a pressure situation, in your own words. By the time Riyan Parag arrived at the crease, 5 wickets had already fallen. He had the huge responsibility to stabilize the situation, with limited resources. When he arrived, India were at 73/5. Then Shreyas Iyer got out to leave them at 82/6. Riyan tried to build a partnership with Shivam Dube, but it was not his day. Anyway, I understand what you are trying to say. If unlimited opportunities can be given to players such as Samson, Arshdeep and Avesh, I don't think that giving a few more chances to Parag will hurt a lot.

Here what I feel that India still needs to shake off the hangover from their T20 World Cup win. In this series, India's bowling was subpar, and their batting was even worse. Their middle order looked especially weak. Sri Lankan bowlers did a great job, while the Indian batters lacked the commitment to win.
Sri Lanka defeated India in the third match, winning the ODI series 2-0 after a long long time. This was one of Sri Lanka's best ODI performances in a while. Winning an ODI series against a full-strength Indian team is not an easy task. Congratulations to Sri Lanka!

I don't feel like you. Bhumrah is the most talented and experienced bowler in the Indian team. However, it is not true that the Indian team is completely dependent on Bhumrah, the main reason for India's defeat in this series is the poor performance of their batsmen. Indian batsmen have not batted well in any of the three ODI matches. We have seen bad batting in every match. Apart from Rohit Sharma, no other batsman was in good form. Even in the last match, India lost by a huge margin of 110 runs.
You are right, but I am right too. If Bumrah would have played, I doubt SL would have crossed 200 in any of their matches making it easier for the batsmen to play under less pressure. Chain reaction basically.

also India winning T20wc was combined effort of whole team, I wouldn't put a single player on pedestal.
Every team match is obviously considered combined effort in literally every sport out there, but some players like Bumrah deserve being put on the pedestal because of their game-changing performances.

For example, he shifted the momentum from the South Africans to the Indians when the target required was just 30 from 30. That itself says it all.

This is what happens when the entire team is overdependent on a single player(Bumrah). That dude is one of the primary reasons they ended up winning the T20 WC recently, but he cannot save them everytime.

The Indian team's performance will not depend on bowling alone, as the opposition will never be able to rely on one player. So they face the same test again and again in the ODI matches, where the Indian team keeps failing again and again in terms of bowling and batting.

Siraj keeps bowling like crap which is why I am hoping for Shami to return soon who is easily the next best bowler after Boom Boom. Anyway, the T20 series went to the Indians while the ODI series went to the Lankans.

In the ODI matches, the Sri Lankan team put as much pressure on the bowling side but the Indian team could not advance in the batting side. Because in the T20I matches, the Indian team had a joint attack due to which they were successful in every match, but in the ODI matches, due to the bad performance in terms of batting, the Indian team fell into a difficult situation.
Especially in the ODI match Rohit Sharma could not control the players enough as the captain, because the batting attack was not right at the right time where the early batsmen performed poorly.

Bumrah being there would have helped make SL less runs but it was more of a Indian batting failure than bowling, also India winning T20wc was combined effort of whole team, I wouldn't put a single player on pedestal.

Also I would say Sri Lanka were very lucky in this series. In each match they batted first and Descent provided a target. Indian bowlers had some weaknesses. But I don't think India lost because of the performance of the bowlers. Sri Lanka could not collect 250 runs in any match. It was not a big target for a big team like India. However, Indian batsmen have batted badly in every match. The batting of Gill, Iyer and Dube in particular was very poor. The collection of these three batsmen in three matches is given below respectively...

  • Shubman Gill - 6.35, 16
  • Shreyas Iyer  - 8,7,23
  • SHivam Dube - 9,0,25

BTW, feels good for Parag. He was the only player who showed consistency in this tour. This guy deserves a lot of praise.
Consistency in bowling? He didn't do anything with bat. Honestly IMO, he did took wickets but I did not find anything extra-ordionary in his bowling, spin friendly pitches also played it's role.
If spin friendly pitches helped Parag with this bowling, then why wasn't the same applicable for Washington Sundar, Axar Patel or Kuldeep Yadav? And also, Parag took crucial wickets. He nabbed Avishka Fernando, Charith Asalanka and Dunith Wellalage during the last match.

It was applicable to all spinners, look at previous 2 games the names you mentioned took wickets, Kuldeep could be having 2 wickets yesterday too had Pant wasn't slow with Theekshana's stumping.

With bat, his performance was not that good, but we need to remember that he batted down the order. At no.7, he may not be getting enough time to get settled in. For Rajasthan Royals, he normally bats much higher up.

By the way., Congratulations to the Sri Lanka team.  Smiley

Sri Lanka really deserved to win the series and game. There is no seriousness seen among Indian batters. They are almost the best players in the world, but unable to chase down these small scores with so much low run rate. I agree that the pitch was very spinner friendly, and under the lights, the balls even turned more, but still, you are one of the best batsmen in the world; you should be aware of the conditions and bat accordingly. Other than Rohit Sharma, no Indian batter has done anything in this series. As soon as Rohit gets out, within 1 hour the whole team returns to the pavilion. The management really needs to think about this.

The T20 series went completely in favor of India, but the completed ODI series went in favor of Sri Lanka. ODI series India performed as if they forgot to play ODIs. There will definitely be a lot of criticism about the last match as in the third ODI we saw India get all out after batting till 26 overs. Even if Sri Lanka took home advantage in the ODI series, India should not have lost against Sri Lanka like this because India is a World Cup winning team and should have won at least one match. Even if the first match was a draw, the result was more likely to go in their favor but what they showed in that match was complete unprofessionalism. Due to lack of responsible batting they have to accept such defeat in ODI series.

After the failure in the T20 series, the Sri Lankan team bounced back very well in the ODI series even managed to win the ODI series with their brilliant performance. When I was watching the live broadcast of the third ODI between India and Sri Lanka yesterday, I saw that the Indian batsmen were playing some reckless shots. Ryan Parag in particular was bowled out on a ball but made no attempt to bat at that ball. He stood there like a fool even watching the ball swing while his team was in dire straits.

When the team is in danger, the batsmen should watch and bat patiently but the Indian batsmen batted excitedly which forced them to lose the match. Shivam Dube got out LBW in the third ODI just like in the second ODI. He should have been more patient so that his team was out of danger. Congratulations to the Sri Lankan team for whitewashing India in the ODI series.

For those who have seen the first two matches, this match will be very interesting.  Because this match will decide who will win this series.  And judging by its performance, India is looking very weak.  Because their batsmen do not meet the target.  And if you look at this target, if you score 248 runs in 50 overs, then this target is nothing compared to India's performance.  But still she looks very weak.  In fact, their batsmen want to set pace with poor performance, but due to pressure, they get out and lose the match if they fail to meet the target.  I didn't expect Sri Lanka to win this match but they worked hard and put India under pressure and won the match.  I had told Sri Lanka in their second match that India will not be silent but Sri Lanka have really silenced them.  Congratulations to Sri Lanka.

The Indian team gave too poor performance and they were losing wickets back to back. By the way, at the start of the series, there was no one who was even able to say India could lose it because they have amazing history in 2024 World Cup and in the other matches, as they won the World Cup while on the other side their opponent Sri Lanka even out from the super 8s. They can’t even reach to the group stages in the World Cup but now the greatest come back ever is here by the team of Sri Lanka. Today I am sure, that every single person who bet on the Indian team from the last two matches is been very disappointed right now.

By the way., Congratulations to the Sri Lanka team.  Smiley






No one expected such a performance in the ODI match of the Indian team in this poor performance they lost the ODI series. But the Sri Lankan team performed well enough and I attribute a lot to their game, they played the best game. Sri Lanka won the ODI series after almost a tenth in the ODI match against India, it is the most joyous thing for them. The team that India beat so easily in the World Cup is the same team that beat India badly in the ODI. Of course, we have seen that the Indian team performed very well in the T20 matches as well, but when it came to the ODI series, no one in India imagined that they would lose badly. But of course the gamblers were disappointed here as most of the people bet on India but they lost. But the performance of the Indian team that we saw must change them but Sri Lanka team showed their best performance and won the ODI series and became the champions.

I stand with Palestine.
India ended up being all out for 138 which I was very disappointed to see. However, Sri Lanka got the opportunity to bat first and ended up scoring 248 runs which was not a huge target. Sri Lankan top order batsmen batted well but India top order batsmen could not perform well. Rohit Sharma should have batted patiently, he batted in T20 style he got out for 35 off 20 balls. Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, Rishabh Pant, if they could have played big innings then India would have won.

No Indian batsman has been able to perform well, like the last two matches, they performed badly yesterday as well due to which they were defeated by a big margin. Sri Lanka's top batsmen batted patiently due to which they were able to play big innings, but Indian batsmen could not bat patiently and finally India lost the ODI series. Congratulations to the Sri Lankan team for winning the series against a strong team like India.
Exactly that was disappointed movement.
By the way I appreciate the performance of Srilanka team. They just did a great job. The target was almost same like the last matches like in the first match Srilanka made 230 runs then they made 240 runs and in the third match they made 248 runs. But India performed really bad. In the first match they just tied the match and in the second match they made 208 runs but in the third match they only made 138 runs. Which the fans were not expecting. Congratulations to Srilanka on their massive win.

I got a notification in my local language by our local channel and they say SriLankan team won  ODI series after 27 years.
Well the match was very interesting what a great performance by SriLankan team. SriLanka was the first who took batting and they made 248 runs. Where Avishka Fernando played well and he was just near to his century but unfortunately he got out at 96 runs. After him there are two more players who played a little well first is Kusal Mendis who made 59 runs and second is Pathum Nissanka who made 45 runs. And from Indian team Riyan Parag was well who collected 3 wickets.
Well India started their turn but they were looking bad in batting. Dunith Wellalage was really good from SriLankan team who destroyed 5 players of Indian team and Jeffrey Vandersay and Maheesh Theekshana collected 2,2 wickets. Means overall SriLankan team performance was great I really appreciate them. And Congratulations to them on their win... Smiley

The batsmen of the Sri Lankan team have performed amazingly, in terms of distribution of the results, the Indian team has won the T20 in three matches. However, in one match, Sachch has drawn in the first ODI match and the Sri Lankan team has won by a wide margin in the remaining two matches. 

Very good performance Sri Lankan team has performed very well in today's match in terms of batting and bowling. Pathum Nissanka, Abhishek Ashalanka, and Kushal Mendis were the top performers in batting as they managed to score 248 runs as they held the match first. Dunith Wellalage played the highest role as he single-handedly collected five wickets. 

However, due to the collection of important wickets in this match, the Indian team could easily perform up to 26 overs, losing 10 wickets and collecting only 138 runs.

India vs Sri Lanka

The third match of the Sri Lanka vs India ODI series has started. Sri Lanka won the toss in all three matches in the ODI series. Today also Sri Lanka decided to bat after winning the toss like in the first two matches. So far Sri Lanka have collected 94 runs for the loss of 1 wicket in 22 overs. Sri Lanka's two opening batsmen are both batting patiently, but already Pathum Nissanka could not score a half-century due to 5 runs, he was dismissed for 45 runs. Avishka Fernando remains unbeaten on 46 runs. If Sri Lanka can score 250+ today then the match will be very competitive. Let's see how many runs Sri Lanka can score in the end.
Yeah, in 3rd and final game sri lanka batting first and made 248 runs excellent batting by Avishka Fernando he made 96 runs and Kusal Mendis scored fifty first and second wickets partnership help sri lanka team to post a good target of 249 runs. India team failed to take wickets early which cost high india team failed to chase the target they could made only 138 runs with loss of all wickets. No player from India team played long innings and they failed to make big partnership like Sri lanka excellent bowling by sri lanka team they dominated on Indian batsman Dunith Wellalage destroyed India batting line by taking 5 wickets while other bowlers also contributed. Sri lanka won the series by 2-0 and this is first time after 1997 sri lanka team won an ODI series against India
Amazing comeback for Sri Lankan team in ODI series. Draw in first match of ODI I series. The team won by 32 runs in the second match and 110 runs in the third match which is really great. I would never see India losing by such a big score. I did not expect such a big disaster in India team. If India could have won a match it would have been acceptable. Even though the Indian team came out with full strength, they lost this series which is hard to think. The bowlers of the Sri Lankan team were so dominant that the Indian batsmen could not stand. Bowlers giving their best bowling performance day by day is definitely a good aspect of the Sri Lankan cricket.
