Sri Lanka is all out at 292 and trail by 37 runs in the 1st innings Kumble took his first wicket of the series, and went on to take couple more while Harbhajan led the attack with a five-for. The match couldn't be more fascinatingly poised. If Indian batsmen are a bit cautious and can get close to 300 in trhe second innings and get a lead of arround 325 to 350, we will definitely win this match.

There is forecast of 80% chance of rain on Monday. If India is in a winning postion then surely the rain Gods will save Sril Lanka. Sri Lanka have always been lucky at home. Can't remember India beating Sri Lanka at Sri Lanka. But Lankans have a terrible record playing abroad.
You are right mate... Parthiv Patel should be called to join the team. He is a gutsy character clearly shown during the IPL. He is a busy player and can be used both as opener as well as 5 down if consolidation of score is required. The think tank and the board should get him back. For Dinesh Karthik, he has been many a chances... I wonder if there is a stroing backing for him to be on side fromt he board.

You are right. Kaarthik performs brilliantly in one match and in the following matches pedestrain. He should perform consistently o'wise he will lose position permanently. Parthiv Patel or any other w/k should be given a chance.

parthiv has scored more than 1500 runs last season. so u cant rule himself out as batsman. in fact, parthiv has proved his batting even on ausi pitches.

Bilkule paglaa gaye ho kya? Once in a lifetime? He has already scored 5 Double Centuries! More than your Sachin Tendulkar. It is high time the Cricket lovers and Critics gave him his due. Acknowledgement; as a Great player. Much greater than one Mr. Sachin Tendulkar.

Sachin, Sourav, Dravid. If any opposition cricket team feal fear by hearing these names. No doubt these are the batsemen who completed 10,000- mark in tests as well as onedays except sourav who has not finished his 10,000 mark. they are not playing in their regular style and they are playing in style of self protection. this gives opposiont team to get their wickect easily. we request the three players has to play in their regualr style don't play in much self protection level
