After giving a target of 184 runs, Sri Lanka thought that they could easily win today's match. But they forgot that the Indian batsmen are in great form now. India's two openers Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan did not play well today. However, Iyer, Samson and Jadeja have fulfilled their responsibilities properly. So today India can easily reach the goal of victory.
Yup, 184 was really a lovely score by Sri Lanka. Opers started fantastic and Nissanka scored 75 out of 53 balls with 11 boundaries and Gunathilaka scored 38 out 29 balls. Though next three wickets were back to back, Dasun Shanaka played awesome scoring 47 out of just 19 balls with 5 sixes and 2 boundaries which lead the team reach 184. Indian openers did not start up very well and lost the wickets. But Shreyes Iyer, Sanju Samson and Jadeja were the ones strong and finished the game even before 3 overs. 2:0 Now. Both teams really played well.
Oh boy Iyer and Jadeja, they were batting as if they are in a hurry to go home and party, bowling wasn't that bad but Jadeja was promoted today with the intent of this destruction only. I am sure Iyer's price has been much more if he would have played these two innings before the auction, it has made a difference of around 4-5 crores in his payment. If he remains in this destructive form till IPL things would become very interesting.
