India has started well though both the openers are back in pavilion and and now India just require another 53 in 46 balls and have 8 wickets in hand . It should be an easy chase unless India loses some quick wickets now and end up in a troubled zone .

There is no fun in watching such one sided matches. I was watching the South Africa vs England test and switching back to Star Sports just to check the score from the T20 match. I was expecting a slightly better performance from Sri Lanka (still expecting them to lose), as they are better in the shorter formats. But they failed in every single department.

Easy win for India and they won like a boss,with 15 balls to spare and 7 wickets in hand.A match to forget for SL and try to post better performance in their upcoming matches by correcting their mistakes of this match.

Restricting srilanka to just 140 runs is a fantastic job by the bowlers. All of them bowled very well. Not to forget Shardul thakur. He got three wicket in one over. It is a one sided match now.

It was supposed to be a one sided match, and it is turning out to be one. So no surprises there. As I have pointed out many times, the gap between the big 3 teams and the other teams are widening. The gap has grown to such a level that the smaller teams are not even able to give meaningful fight against big teams such as India and Australia.

Good and controlled start by team India. Loosing quick wickets by the srilankan team has put them into pressure. Intresting to see this young man Saini bowling very aggressively.

Yup... Saini was bowling at a good pace and he created problems for the South African batsmen. I was more concerned about Jasprit Bumrah, who is returning from an injury outage. He picked up one wicket, but looked out of form. Perhaps he need another couple of matches to get back to his peak form. Anyway... this match is going to be a cakewalk for team India. They should get there in less than 15 overs.

I think so today who will bat first they have more chances to win the match, because of there has been heavy dew cover on the outfield for the last couple of days as per report said.

If dew is the case then chasing is always the best option as the outfield will be wet and the fielders will be having a hard time catching the ball and the bowlers especially spinners will be struggling to grip the ball and hence if dew is the case any team that wins toss will put the opposition to bat first and then chasing the score will be the smartest move in this situation.

You brother it is best option to choose the chasing when situations like that dew going to impact the match. Because it will be very difficult to bowlers and also fielding I am hope that if India wins toss they will choose Bowling first.

You are right,India won the toss and elected to bowl first.SL lost their first wicket for 38 and now they are currently passed 50 in the 7th over both seems pretty good at the moment.If Indian bowlers take two more wickets in quick session then they can control team SL to score any huge target later the dew will help India bot more and can get an easy win here.

There was some talk about that ground staff didn't covered the pitch carefully " leaking covers" lol. but i agree BCCI need to think about it overall and i guess they are working on it some levels. what's the use of money if you can't even use updated drainage system (Chinnaswamy ground & Eden Garden) in all international ground. all they need to do is spend 30-50 millions and 90-95% grounds are covered.

With climate change impact being felt more often, the cricket boards seriously need to think about the solution. Countries such as Australia, Afghanistan and UAE don't need to worry much, as most of the area is desert and there is very little rainfall. But this is a serious issue for countries such as India, Bangladesh, West Indies and New Zealand. Normally matches are scheduled during the non-Monsoon months in India. But as a result of climate change, now we are getting rains during non-Monsoon months as well.

As I had pointed out earlier, there is only one solution that works 100%. That is to build a stadium with retractable roofing.

We discussed this many time here and i agree with @Royse pretty much that pitch need natural light and IMO Uv light can't replace sunlight for cricket grounds at-least in the next 2-3 decades, may be high quality of Drop-in pitch can do some magic for short format, not in Test though but i am optimistic in this regard. adding 2 more points.

For brand new grounds it could be a solution in some extent but for old grounds its not possible (foundation, construction etc), majority of grounds are old and some are 50+ years so not practical IMO.
ICC or cricket board need huge amount of money to build retractable roof ground. Marvel Stadium in Melbourne is first and only cricket ground which has retractable roof, it cost them 460 million AUD and they use it for Rugby or few games of t-20 leauge. just to give you example this ground hosted few international matches of cricket.

Today 2nd T20 between India vs SL will happen as their is no forecast of rain and weather looks good for the match to happen. Now both the matches remaining have suddenly became more vital for both the teams to win either to win the series win both or to draw win atleast one.

Dew, wind, sunshine are some of the key elements that play a vital roll in a cricket match. Without wind and moisture pitch ball will not swing, bowling will be like throwing it in a flat cement pitch. In a day-night match we see how vital the dew factor is. Let's not mention the needs of sunlight of course. With a retractable roofing won't we miss wind, dew?

May be in the future we will see ICC will come up with some wired ideas or such but if the bowlers lose all their weapons then we will see in a ODI match, the team who are batting first is giving 550 to 600 runs target and the opponent team is chasing down the run successfully. In a T20 match first batting team is giving 400+ runs target and the chasing team is chasing it successfully. Will that be cricket anymore?

The bowling unit for the teams will turn out to be a joke and let's say the teams will decide to play the match with 10 batsmen and a bowling matching which will be replaced by the last man of the team. It will not look good :-D

Today we have a 2nd T20 match between in india vs SriLanka at indore, as per forecast reporting that there is no rain possible today. And we can expect high scoring match today maybe 180+ I think so today who will bat first they have more chances to win the match, because of there has been heavy dew cover on the outfield for the last couple of days as per report said.

The game has been called off

Wasted the time checking for updates. Should have sticked to the SA vs ENG test match, missed the wicket balls while checking for the updates.

LOL.. what do you expect after scheduling the match at Guwahati, which happens to be one of the wettest places in India. It was known that rains do occur at this time in Northeast India. And at the same time, I am quite surprised that despite being the richest sports body in the world, the BCCI don't have any plans to construct a stadium with retractable roof. They have millions of USD for wasteful administrative expenses but they are always miserly when it comes to the construction of infrastructural facilities.

Sadly, the richest sporting body can't afford a few super-soakers.

The fact is that the BCCI is taking care of these stadium duties, the local board in a state will pitch for the match to be conducted and if the BCCI thinks that it maintains a minimum standard then the match is allocated and that is what i understand and the preparation should be done by the local authority and BCCI does not gets involved in those and they share the ticket revenue on a percentage basis and the main revenue always goes to the BCCI in the form of television rights and that is how things work.

BCCI can't put the entire blame on the Assam Cricket Association (ACA). The TV broadcasters had spent a fortune for the rights and with every match that is abandoned, they will face tens of millions of USD in losses. I agree that it is the local board (ACA in this case) which has the responsibility to prepare the stadium. But even then, the BCCI has a supervisory role.

Just for those who curious about the weather in indore for tomorrow, it will be mostly sunny so we will surely have a match.

Thanks for the weather update and i will wait for the match to start before placing a bet this time around as i do not want to wage a bet on a match that is reduced and i am expecting India to dominate the tournament as they rested some players but they have the team to beat a team like Sri Lanka and their trump card is still Malinga and if he performs then he can defeat any team.

Indore weather is OK, but isolated rains are predicted across North India on 7th and 8th January. The 3rd ODI is to be played at Pune, and as of now the weather predictions point to very little rain in Indore/Pune. That said, I was watching the coverage from the first T20 match. The facilities they have at Guwahati looked like from stone age. Sadly, the richest sporting body can't afford a few super-soakers.
