Sunday match is always going to be excited. It was yet-again clash between India and Srilanka where both the teams are not with big names with India missing the most. A 154 stand between Rohit and Kohli sealed the game for India. Chasing 242, India crossed the line with 7 wickets and woth 29 balls to spare. Thanks mainly to Rohit Sharma's ton.
Descent Bowling:
Earlier Raina won the toss and asked his counterpart to bat. India opening bowlers Dinda and Yadav bowled well this time.They restricted lankans for 39/2 in 10 overs.Dilshan and Mathews slowely built a partnership. They lasted for 61 runs and soon after scoring his half century,Dilshan was run out. None really performed well for Lankans. Eventually they ended up scoring just 242 runs.Mathews,who is improving match by match notched up 75 runs.Dinda,Ojha and Jadeja picked 2 wickets each
Rohit and Kohli's Show:
Chasing 242 runs is not a tuff task. Indian openers failed this time too.soon Indian scorecard read 47/2 at the end of 10 overs. Rohit and Kohli joint hands in then. Kohli was playing with great patience right from his first ball. Whereas on the otherside Rohit didn't show any sort of patience initially.He came down the pitch to whack perara over deep cover but at the end of the day it was a swing-and-a-miss shot. He even lifted mendis toward long-on. He was fortunate then not to be caught. Both ran a lot of singles between them. Boundaries were hard to come. Both eventually went on to make their half centuries. Unfortunately Kohli departed for well-made 82 while Rohit went on to make his 2nd consecutive century,by cutting Mendis to square. After Kohli's dismissal, Raina came in and notched up the remaining runs and eventually scored the winning run for India.
India's next is game is against Zimbabwe on 3rd of June.
Hope India win that match.
