Srilanka won the toss and opted to bat first. A good decision as haze might play a role in the second half. Also the temperature tends to suddenly drop at night. I will not be easy for the Indian batters to chase the target set by the Srilankan batters. Any target which is 250+ would be good on this field. 

Srilanka only managed to score 216 runs which isn't going to be enough. Nuwanidu Fernando made 50 runs before he was run out. The middle order batsmen failed and therefore they were not able to score big runs in the end.
Now India has scored 122 runs with four wickets down. The only chance for Srilanka to win here is to take some quick wickets. Otherwise India will easily win this match. India only require 3.5 runs per over from here onwards. Should be an easy win for them.
I thought Sri Lanka would score at least 300 runs but they lost all their wickets for just 216 runs.  But on the other hand, India has not been able to play very well.  Their run rate per over is almost the same as Sri Lanka's.  But India is playing to save their wickets.  So they can be expected to beat Sri Lanka. But I expected a better game from India but I don't see their performance accordingly

Sri Lanka's performance in today's Sri Lanka vs India match is that they could not stay long at the crease.  Because only one Fernando has scored a half century but all the others had to leave the field more or less.  Sri Lanka lost all wickets and after 39 overs, they left the field having collected 215 runs.  The Indian bowlers were so violent that the Sri Lankan players could not last long on the field.
Meanwhile, Indian player Virat Kohli had to leave the field with only a few runs left.  However, needing 126 runs now, India is under a lot of pressure after losing four wickets.  Now, if the batting duo of Rahul and Hardik Pandey can survive, India has a very high chance of winning against Sri Lanka.  Despite having enough to offer, India can see what it can do.
Sometimes ago seemed easy but at this moment the match became quite difficult. The target was small but the Indian batting was in trouble. There are still opportunities from here, but if they fail to exploit it, the Indian team will have to bear the responsibility. Since the Indian batsmen had a good understanding of the pitch conditions, if they could have stay on the pitch instead of collecting quick runs, they would have had a better chance of winning the match. But definitely the way the Indian batsmen are playing at the moment shows the immense pressure under them.

I do not understand why the Srilankan commentators are saying good over in Srilankan bowlers favour when the over conceded a 4 or sometime 5. In the end it is a 50 over match and if the Indian batters just score a 4 in every over still they can reach 200 runs. The rest can be through extras and some running in between the wickets. No idea why they are so happy as India has only lost 2 wickets and plenty batting is left as well as overs.

Edit: Kohli is out again unable to handle pressure. Give him a good opening and he will score a century, which did not happen this time.
Edit 2: Iyer gone, WTF!! It is only 216, why on the earth are they taking risk?
Not many Sri Lankan commentators for 2nd ODI, only Sangakara is there i suppose and he's good along with Harsha Bhogle. Other than that comm box is full of shit.

Deep Dasgupta is boring.
Sunny G is only good when he talks about batting technique but most of the time he's cringeworthy.
Agarkar is okay in patches.
Murli Kartik should be banned.

-----
Anyway, India lost too many batters tonight and we have a long tail. 1 more wicket could make the match very interesting.

Edit

Okay, you must be talking about Rusell, he's there too.

2nd ODI Match India vs Sri Lanka. Indian cricket team is much stronger than Sri Lanka cricket team. In today's match Sri Lanka cricket team batted first and collected 215 runs losing all the wickets. Sri Lankan batsmen failed to score big under pressure from Indian cricket team bowlers Indian cricket team bowlers performed very well in bowling
3 wickets with in 80 runs still India is leading position according to match conditions. However, due to the sudden fall of three wickets, the run rate of the Indian team decreased a bit. Since the target is not very large, the speed of the run will not have much effect. But if two more wickets fall with in few overs then the match will go into a tough situation. India knows how to play in this adverse positions.
As well, India lost their 4th wicket. When the top four batsmen are out, it does not mean they are not talented, but rather how talented the bowlers are. 2nd ODI is being spiced up by Sri Lanka pacers. It's a great match! There is a lot of good news for SL with the way they are playing these days. Fast bowlers always benefit from Kolkata pitches, and SL has been doing well. Even though India lost 4 wickets, this should still be an easy win for them.

I don't know what Sri Lankan batters are doing. They made a good comeback after an early wicket but now these guys are getting bamboozled by Kuldeep and Axar.

I was hoping for a big target chase but now it would be a miracle if SL crosses 200-220 mark.

101/1 to 126/6
Yadav continues his good form due to which he deserves a spot in the ODI team for the upcoming World Cup. Axar has turned out to be the perfect all-rounder for the Indian team in recent times.

This match will go to India too. I would be surprised if Sri Lanka actually manages to win one match in this series.
Axar have improved much compared to the beginning days of his performance. Target of 216 runs is reachable and for a surprise to happen Sri Lanka needs at least 3 wickets in the powerplay. For Rohit Sharma in good form seems to give a good start. To avoid unwanted wickets, India will play in a much slower way than scoring big runs per over.
4 overs gone and India is on 30 runs , a sensible start fron Indian openers as they have no hurry to chase as target is easy. This is a thing about Indian batting they always played good and there is consistency in their performance. 
Sirlanka should put some pressure on Indians otherwise match will be one sided completely.

Unfortunately, Pakistan lost the last match but i think things are going to be better in the last. Now it's 1-1 so the heat and hype of the game in the last is going to be more crucial as the decision is pending for both sides. Expecting good Results in the favor of Pakistan. Let's see what a match is going to bring on.

I have never seen a team from the subcontinent struggling against spinners. Kuldeep & Axar destroyed thier middle order. Rest Umran & Shiraz took care off. None of the Srilankan batters were able to form a good partnership. They tried but eventually gave up against the good Indian bowling on a batter friendly pitch. A complete dominance by the Indian team. It is an easy target to chase and a win win situation for India.
Sirlankans started good but after 100 runs they lost all important wickets and as a result they failed to give a big target . Sirlanka all out on 215 runs , not a single batsman played sensibly which caused this damage.
Now  this is an easily chaseable target for India.

In the 2nd ODI match Sri Lanka vs India the match between these two teams has started. Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to bat and scored 149 runs in 27 overs. And Sri Lanka have lost 6 wickets so far.  If they can't play, there is a possibility that they will be all out today. Because now Sri Lanka have only 4 wickets left. We can see that India bowlers have started bowling very well from the beginning.

Pakistan again bowled well but the Kiwis bowled better. The whole Pakistani batting line up just collapsed. Only the Captain stood thier but was not that agressive considering the number of balls he faced. The series is now tied and the last ODI will decide who will win it. Pakistan are still the favourite but after today's game I think the Kiwis do have a chance.
Kiwi's gave their regular performance. Pakistan batsmen didn't perform well. In between the team had some improvement, once again team have turned to be dependent upon specific players. In the match it was Babar Azam and Rizwan to score. No more scoring players on the home ground. This is reachable target. Let's see what is the ability of Pakistan in the upcoming ODI.
Yes this is typical Pakistani batting who always failed to perform and because of that Pakistan lost another match. Disappointing performance by batsman and Newzealand was regular like always its not like they did something extra .
Pakistan will loose this series if they continue like this.

Pakistan performed bad and now the series is on 1-1. And the next match will decide who will win the series. Both teams will do their best to win the match. And the next match is going to be interesting. And I hope  Pakistan will not that mistakes which has made in the last match. Let see what happen? Smiley

Pakistan needs the win more than New Zealand at this point. Pakistan is nearly full-strength, although their best bowler is missing. On top of that, they have the home advantage as well. New Zealand is missing several of their pacers and their batsmen are not in good form. Despite all that, if New Zealand manages to win this ODI series, then it will provide them with a huge boost ahead of the 2023 ODI World Cup. Match will start by 3pm Indian time tomorrow and both the teams will be desperate to win the match and thereby the series.
