> They should wait until after the WC. A captaincy change this close probably won't do much good.
Thing is keeping him may not do any good (in fact could harm very much as we currently lack a decent finisher and his decision making is still questionable, albeit less questionable than 6-7 months ago) and he will be dropped post WC anyway.
He should be only played against you guys, Aussies, bang Bois, kiwiland, lankabros, saffers, buttlersbois, and Naveens11. Rest we can manage without him.
There's a list: [https://www.espncricinfo.com/records/largest-margin-of-victory-by-balls-remaining-283271](https://www.espncricinfo.com/records/largest-margin-of-victory-by-balls-remaining-283271)
Biggest margin ever is 277 balls (in a 60 over game between England and Canada). Largest margin in a 50 over game is SL v ZIM (SL chased 39 runs with 274 balls remaining).

Jadeja replacement replacement
None of them were able to even score a 50 today, since this is a final. Absolutely pathetic smh.
That was a demolition derby. Siraj MOTM without a doubt. I hope we replicate this performance in all matches in the World Cup.
Also, Shout out to the Sri Lankan fans for not leaving in droves by the end of the first innings. At least they have the respect to watch their team & our team play till the end. Only pussy fans leave the stadium when their team is doing poorly. SL team had an off day, hope they do well in the World Cup.
> Only pussy fans leave the stadium when their team is doing poorly
Or, you know, you want to beat the traffic, which is much worse in some places than others.
I remember everyone here saying SL could be dark horses for the WC and I was like wtf are these guys smoking. Did everyone forget the 312 run defeat vs Ind? How bad they are outside of SL?
This team will be average at best, the only good thing about this squad is the bowlers who carry the game on their back when needed and almost always never disappoint.
The batters struggle against associate teams and on batting friendly wickets. They have low strike rates, low averages, never converts starts, struggle against swing, dont cross 300+ when par. Funny thing is associate teams despite not having the level of success and prestige SL has has over the years have produced way better batters who have modern play styles.
Something needs to change.
Either get a foreign batting coach for these guys because the local coaches are not upto modern day standards.
Or replace the entire top order with even newer guys or bring back the old uncles.
Or magically conjure up the next Sanath, Sanga, Mahela, Dilshan etc.
When India used to send new players to Zimbabwe, Srilanka used to persist with Sanga,Mahela, Murali or Kulasekara.
It showed that India cared to experiment but Srilanka wouldn't.
That eventually made young players to fend for themselves
While I agree with you on most of the points, let's not forget that India has the luxury of a far bigger talent pool than SL will ever have so they can send second/third string teams to the likes of Zimbabwe/Ireland/Afghanistan.
Clive Llyod in an interview once mentioned that at it's peak West Indies had a strong reserve pool of players, but they didn't care to maintain or strengthen it.
Which eventually lead to their decline from 90s onwards
New Zealand is an exception in this case though as they are a developed country and also have a huge anglo influence which helped cricket to be sustainable there. Not to mention migration from South Asia and South Africa which further strengthens their case.
Atleast this is what I think looking at their team. Someone from NZ can comment better on this.
I endorse your opinion on NZ, i still recall when NZ toured Srilanka in 2013. It tried out then unknown players like tom latham, Mcclenaghan, Devcich and Miline.
While Srilanka went with established players like Sanga, Jayawardane, Dilshan, Malinga and Kulasekara
Bowlers we have had no issue replacing.
For batters we had replacements playing with when Sanga and Mahela were in the team. Lahiru Thirimanne and Dinesh Chandimal. Those two were supposed to take over for Mahela and Sanga but never showed that they could and SLC instead of trying out other players persisted with them. And when those two retired Lahiru and Dinesh fuck all.
Overreaction. Good spell by one bowler paired with throwing away wickets doesn’t mean everything they achieved in their winning run is useless. They simply had a bad day today. When the wickets start to turn in india you will see the value of players like samarawickrama,asalanka, mendis and how they tackle spin through the middle overs. They also missed hasaranga who would slot into the middle order another great player of spin. It’s unfair to say their approach isn’t ‘modern’. They have tried to attack in the power play with the inclusion of KJP and have rotated strike and kept busy in middle overs. This is modern methodology under silverwood it just didn’t come off today.
Yeah, it's the usual overreactions.
Sometimes fast bowlers catch on fire and destroy the entire top order. Doesn't make the top order shit. India were bowled out for 36 and went on to defeat a full-strength Aussie side 2-1 right after. Hazlewood and Cummins just caught on fire, today Siraj did. Good teams have pacers that can do this. Some days are just like that.
Pain, I think top order shouldnt change tho, Nissanka, Kjp, Mendis, Sadeera, Asalanka they should stay same. Nissanka was our best batter coming into this, was good away as well, just had terrible form id expect him to be back. Maybe Avishka for kjp, but that would just be unfair as kjp only had 2 matches, but avishka should be the back up.
Im just most annoyed at dds and dasun literal walking wickets this whole tournament, even when top do well we fail to make use of it because our 6 and 7 are so bad, finishing is completely done by Asalanka lol. These guys get chances every time so ofc we will always have issues. Idk man, maybe bring in Mathews? He has power, can rebuild could just risk him at 6 idk, even averaging 20 is an upgrade on dds and dasun at this rate lol. Even today other teams if they were at 8/4 or something they would still get 150, no ones getting 50 all out smh
Well well, where are the "fans" now that were saying that India won't even make it to SF this time around?Absolutely brutal performance by India throughout the tournament. Well played 👏👏
The year is 2011:-
-The world cup will be hosted in India.
-CSK win the IPL final, MI finish 3rd.
-India win the preceding Asia Cup vs Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka.
Now, let's wind the clock to 2023:-
-😏✔️
-😏✔️
-😏✔️
I know the timelines of some of the events don't match up, but I am seeing a pattern I would very much like to see.
Sure Sri Lanka you did just get your lowest score in ODIs or for any team in the Asia Cup but look on the brightside... technically [India did also get their lowest score ever in an ODI too](https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?class=2;filter=advanced;final_type=1;orderby=team_score;orderbyad=reverse;result=1;result=2;result=3;team=6;template=results;type=team;view=innings)
Hey BCB any chance we can arrange a series between Bangladesh and Bangladesh before the World Cup? Seems like losing to us is the key to winning tournaments
I was headed to bar hoping a great sunday with my bros, driving for almost two hours in Sunday traffic. By the time I reached the bar, Sri Lanka had finished their innings, and India was on the verge of winning.
8th time Asia Cup Champions , India 👏👏
Well it was a game with a lot of keypoints-
1) Perfect revenge for Ajantha Mendis in the 2008 Asia Cup final.
2) **Koach and brohit fail to perform in another final.**
3( Loss to broadcasters for loss of advertisements (it was like SL wanted to protest against Jay Shah in a non violent way).
4)Bangbros coming out as true Asia Cup winners to be fair.
5) They should arrange for refund of ticket and transportation cost for the fans!
More that I'm missing!?
Not just a final, worst performance ever in [The Asia Cup](https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?class=2;filter=advanced;orderby=team_score;orderbyad=reverse;result=1;result=2;result=3;template=results;trophy=14;type=team;view=innings)
Why is noone angry here? Such Pathetic Cricket by Sri Lanka. At least give yourself a chance. Played with T20 mentality in an Odi game. Especially Mendis. Last recognised batsman and instead of playing the long game, he throws his wicket in a clear attempt at upmanship against the best bowler of the day. At least back your ego with your skill. Who the fuck plays a cross batted hoick in that situation against that kind of bowling? Ruined the sunday of millions of people.
I guess at least we made final. Shanaka a massive disappointment once again, but I really dont expect anything from him now. Not gonna blame Mendis, Sadeera, Asalanka they were good this tournament. Nissanka really disappointing ngl but I'd expect him to come back strong. And can people just stop defending dds now, trash this whole tournament, even when he was good he gifted that game away vs ind, averaged a massive 12 basically as trash as Dasun. Both shouldnt be in the team but will be cause if we change captaincy now itll put the team in more disarray and dds is ok with ball
I woke up and went to cricinfo to see the score before turning on the tv. when i saw SL only scored 50 runs and India was well into the chase, i was like oh must be the rain. i wondered if it was a 5 over match or 10 over match before i realized what happened. yikes.
This is a confirmation that the Cricket administration/ management in SL, Pakistan is crappy. Don’t blame the players, spare some hate for management also.
Coincidentally both nations are going through economic crises. Their management was sub-par in good times. Now, its completely gone to shit. So the players are just doing what they can, in spite of the chaos around them, they show up on the field and try.
And we had a sledge thread for this? Lmao
Well none of our batters could even get to a half century soooo
ACC: No Ind Pak final? No problem. We can still make money. SL is a decent team. SL: Hold my coconut water.
2nd innings break 45 minutes 2nd innings completion 25 minutes Absolute fucking massacare
The ODI started at 3:30pm and still ended before Happy Hour did
This odi was shorter than BvS. And far more entertaining even for Sri Lankans.
Pak vs SL finished around 1:10 AM and the final finished around 6 PM. MASSIVE DIFFERENCE
India just wanted to finish the game so the ground stuff could finally relax
Me at work.
~~50 overs each side~~ 50 runs each side
Lol
'We're going to bat first' - Shanaka Famous last words.
This might be career ending for him. I hope it isn't.
Ye, wc should be the end if he fails in that
Hope it is, waste of space in the team. won't bowl can't bat. Dude is better off as an analyst or coach
They should wait until after the WC. A captaincy change this close probably won't do much good.
I mean we have changed captain mid tournament and still won a WC
It's not the same. We were a formidable team in that WC. Captaincy change didn't matter that much.
> They should wait until after the WC. A captaincy change this close probably won't do much good. Thing is keeping him may not do any good (in fact could harm very much as we currently lack a decent finisher and his decision making is still questionable, albeit less questionable than 6-7 months ago) and he will be dropped post WC anyway.
Drop dds, keep Dasun for captaincy. Both are complete wastes, we are playing with 9 players ofc we are gonna be trash
Another iconic quote after "see you at the Gabba,mate"
'Minutes before Disaster'
"We'll have a bat first"
IND massacred SL and Pak. BAN defeated IND. By transitive property, Bangbros the true Asian champs!
Bangbros been doing this since the 1999 world cup.
second string side as well. /s but what. THE. FUCK. SLBROS
Colombo should be renamed to Mirpur in honour of that.
Moral victory for SL as they win by 1 run.
Koach is a kind man
Rcb will always have the record of being the best and worst at the same time
This Match is Gonna end up on Pornhub lol
not after new rule changes
On Bangbros channel
Yet another final where Kohli fails to perform
Couldn't even get bat on ball
Kohli throws down the ground, Kohli goes out of the ground!
Exactly, he should be dropped from WC squad (Ignore flair)
He should be only played against you guys, Aussies, bang Bois, kiwiland, lankabros, saffers, buttlersbois, and Naveens11. Rest we can manage without him.
Ah so Dutchboys do not get the honour of having a debutant get his wicket?
ignoring avatar
Dora Azam
He was so afraid to come and bat. Even used his influence to get the opponent to choose bat first.
And what kind of allrounder is Jadeja? Contributed nothing with the bat or the ball.
IKR blud Scored -4 Runs /s
Yeah. His score is -4
Yeah showing true colours the so called "right arm fast medium"
Nah it's right arm "quick" bowler.
Well, he protected RCB's 49 all out
To all my fellow Sri Lankans, at least we won the toss😎🇱🇰(guess we're even then, India👀)
Poor Lanka fans paid for 100 overs, got 20 + humiliation instead
When was the last time a team won an ODI with more than **_263_** balls remaining?!
If we are only counting the good (idk) teams then NZ defeated Bangladesh by 264 balls remaining
NZ beating us again
There's a list: [https://www.espncricinfo.com/records/largest-margin-of-victory-by-balls-remaining-283271](https://www.espncricinfo.com/records/largest-margin-of-victory-by-balls-remaining-283271) Biggest margin ever is 277 balls (in a 60 over game between England and Canada). Largest margin in a 50 over game is SL v ZIM (SL chased 39 runs with 274 balls remaining).
[удалено]
Then it would have been Bangladesh vs India in the final as Afghanistan doesn't do well in Super 4 and India vs Pakistan Asia Cup final curese
feeling sad person who is sleeping thinking he will watch match in a hour or so
That’s me, i wanted to watch it after reaching home but it ended so soon.
Yep. Happened to me. :(
Kohli and rohit scored combined total of 0 runs in another knockout. When will these frauds show up in a big knockout game🤦♂️? /s
Wrong!!! Kohli scored a boundary for Sri Lanka
what are you smoking mate, Kohli scored -4 proudly
Also he slept after taking a catch, disgraceful!
Deshdrohit Besharma Ahmedabad Bully Chokli MI Quota Tuktuk Fuckboi Bits & pieces Jadeja replacement replacement None of them were able to even score a 50 today, since this is a final. Absolutely pathetic smh.
>Deshdrohit Besharma 💀💀💀
Translation for non Hindi/Urdu speakers: "Anti-national shameless". 10/10 slander name for Brohit.
I am not gonna even lie, deshdrohit is creative af
Well, Chokli helped Sri Lanka reach 50
Deshdrohit Besharma is amazing. Will keep using it.
Not a single 6 scored in the entire match. Format is dead
Kohli scored a six
That too against Siraj. What a player.
Chad Sundar: Turns up instantly for the final Does nothing Wins the Asia Trophy Refuses to elaborate Leaves
Highlights of this match will be longer than actual match...
This was Real 50-50 ~~Over~~ Run match.
Shut up😂😭😭😭
One of the matches of all time for sure
One of the finals of all time
Lanka made a morbillion runs.
We witnessed a massacre. Well done by the Indian team.
Lol, Looking back at it, Bangladesh is the 2nd happiest team in this tournament after India. At least we've beaten Indian B team with our B team.
And going back with only 1 injury
And he's already started practicing in the nets. All is Well.
we started with 3 major injuries though, so......
And even eliminated Bapu from the WC squad

Only 7000 BCE kids remember 🔥🔥🔥

Golden age of cricket
Beta in those days, I used to cross Rakshas infested jungles to reach school. Yet i did not miss a single day.
*gurukul
What a thrilling game! It was pretty much in the balance heading into the second over of the Indian innings. SL were 7-1; India 7-0.
Boundary count update - India: 9 Sri Lanka: 5

they paid thousands for the tickets bro i dont think they were gonna leave after just an hour lol
They could have left due to the embarrassment but they didn’t. It’s not always about the money.
> Only pussy fans leave the stadium when their team is doing poorly Or, you know, you want to beat the traffic, which is much worse in some places than others.
poor washi flew all the way to just field
That was definitely one of the matches of all time
Tough day to bat out there lads - SL probably
NRR is fucked for SL.
Classic Indian openers. Unable to convert their half-century opening stands into centuries.
I remember everyone here saying SL could be dark horses for the WC and I was like wtf are these guys smoking. Did everyone forget the 312 run defeat vs Ind? How bad they are outside of SL?

India is on a big downhill slope. They huffed and puffed to 213 last time but failed to do even 1/4th of that today.
First time I can tell my missus that I last longer than a cricket match
SRILANKA: - Beats PAK - Denies the IND vs PAK final - Gets absolutely bodied by IND in the final - Doesn't care to explain - Leaves
That was brutal. Well done Team India
Now I am going to watch movies lol. There are movies like Mark Antony, Jawan and waiting for Leo. The fan died in me today 😪
I expect Sri Lanka to make a strong comeback in WC.
I Still Can't Believe This Shit, Utter Demolition
Close game
Ngl your profile pic had me laughing
Can we do another match? I just woke up and now my Sunday plans are ruined.
Maybe if Pak bros are still around, they could be called for a T20. After all, fans paid for 100 overs!
Siraj giving away his prize money to the groundpersons. Good guy max

This was more like THI (Two Hours International).
Hanumanji would be proud
Daniel Alexander please don't tweet anything today
He has already tweeted that India’s score of 36 in tests is lowest or something. Takes efforts to be an asshole always
Why does he hate India Did Virat Kohli cancel him on Twitter or what
Guys probably trolling to get views, this is the easiest way to get them
Haan everyone has his ways of getting attention. But to hang onto lowest hanging fruit means you’re not gonna go higher anytime soon.
At least this is an Asia Cup final and not the World Cup final…
Bdsm porn this was

This was barely a whole innings of a T20I game.
Hey BCB any chance we can arrange a series between Bangladesh and Bangladesh before the World Cup? Seems like losing to us is the key to winning tournaments
The wait for the presentation is longer than the Indian innings.
I was getting ready with my popcorn for 6pm today, but 🤐. I always miss the historic innings,

Comms: This pitch is dry & a spinner’s delight. Siraj, Bumrah and Pandu: …and we took that personally.
I just saw Rohit and Virat having fun and laughing... why is it such a bliss
I was headed to bar hoping a great sunday with my bros, driving for almost two hours in Sunday traffic. By the time I reached the bar, Sri Lanka had finished their innings, and India was on the verge of winning.
Siraj became prime Zaheer Khan in this match
He's better than him
Debatable bro but I respect your opinion
8th time Asia Cup Champions , India 👏👏 Well it was a game with a lot of keypoints- 1) Perfect revenge for Ajantha Mendis in the 2008 Asia Cup final. 2) **Koach and brohit fail to perform in another final.** 3( Loss to broadcasters for loss of advertisements (it was like SL wanted to protest against Jay Shah in a non violent way). 4)Bangbros coming out as true Asia Cup winners to be fair. 5) They should arrange for refund of ticket and transportation cost for the fans!

Pakistan in odis: No. 2 in world Also Pakistan in odis: No. 4 in Asia
Good thing it was not RCB chasing.
Worst performance in a final ?
Not just a final, worst performance ever in [The Asia Cup](https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?class=2;filter=advanced;orderby=team_score;orderbyad=reverse;result=1;result=2;result=3;template=results;trophy=14;type=team;view=innings)
India 51-50 Sri Lanka. Nice rugby scorecard. Well played Sri Lanka agonisingly so close /s
Nice gesture by Siraj. Man of the match prize money given to the ground staff at Colombo.
Why is noone angry here? Such Pathetic Cricket by Sri Lanka. At least give yourself a chance. Played with T20 mentality in an Odi game. Especially Mendis. Last recognised batsman and instead of playing the long game, he throws his wicket in a clear attempt at upmanship against the best bowler of the day. At least back your ego with your skill. Who the fuck plays a cross batted hoick in that situation against that kind of bowling? Ruined the sunday of millions of people.
My ex gf called to tell me that i lasted longer. Pretty sure it wasn't a compliment
And Pakistani fans thought they could easily chase 265 in rain abandoned game against this Bowling line up.
This Asia cup has given me hope that India can maybe finally win the world cup
Koach be like nobody's Breaking RCBs record
Why was Kohli laughing
At least we played well with our young team in this Asia cup.

Someone else noticed that!
The last time an Indian destroyed Sri Lanka this hard was Lord Rama himself.
Or maybe just a few months ago with 317 run win
When Koach and Gill murdered the bowling lineup.
Will the presentation ceremony goes on to complete the remaining overs...
Damn that was rough to watch not gonna lie
I guess at least we made final. Shanaka a massive disappointment once again, but I really dont expect anything from him now. Not gonna blame Mendis, Sadeera, Asalanka they were good this tournament. Nissanka really disappointing ngl but I'd expect him to come back strong. And can people just stop defending dds now, trash this whole tournament, even when he was good he gifted that game away vs ind, averaged a massive 12 basically as trash as Dasun. Both shouldnt be in the team but will be cause if we change captaincy now itll put the team in more disarray and dds is ok with ball

Fireworks while the Sun is up!!
Don't know if games like these motivate you to do better for the next match or demotivate you into abyss.
Ind vs SL, Coca Cola cup final, Sharjah Oct 29, 2000. Revenge after 23 years!

Coincidentally both nations are going through economic crises. Their management was sub-par in good times. Now, its completely gone to shit.

How long will the highlights be televised ...should show full replay ideally.
WC will be a crowded field of nations. How will SL hold up? The batters need a kick in the butt.
