I can't believe India have scheduled another series with Sri-Lanka this year. That was the most boring series I have ever experienced, Sri-Lanka never looked in it.

aren't series sheduled years in advance though? (correct me if I'm wrong)

I don't think anyone was expecting this much disparity between the teams when it was sheduled and Sri Lankan cricket has had a pretty steep fall.

Yeah you're right about that.

Yeah it's sad. They don't even have anyone they can put their hopes on for the future. Maybe Kusal Mendis, but that's about it.

Bangladesh seem to be on top at the moment. Wicket's crumbling pretty quickly so it'll quite hard for the Aussies, in their second innings. Tomorrow should clear up the match a little bit, or so I hope.

Talking about the SL V IND series, Sri Lanka look pretty shit tbh. They seriously need to get their batting together. India's playing pretty well though, so that's good to see.

I think aus' mentality is what is gonna have the biggest impact. You'd think most players went in thinking these tests would be easy wins and now are gonna give some respect. They certainly don't want to be embarrassed again.

Lyon always dominates in these sub-continent pitches.

If Warney was Indian/Sri-Lankan etc. he'd have 1000 wickets to his name.

Big score from Mushfiqur if Bangladesh want to have a chance in the 1st innings. Looks like a good pitch to bat on.

Kohli is an absolute GOD! Equals Ricky Ponting with the second most ODI hundreds, and he did in 190 odd matches. India for 2019 WC? :D
