I am a die-hard cricket enthusiast. These are my personal views on Sri Lanka’s most loved game.

"45 minutes of madness"

It’s stumps on day 3 on the 2nd Test match in Delhi. The guys approached this match positively after 2 days of good cricket in the rain-affected match in Chennai. But right now, the game is very precariously poised. For starters, Murali spun his magic to restrict the Indians to 290 after they started day 2 strongly on 245 for 3. Then I thought Mahela and Marvan batted brilliantly, only to let themselves down. Batting strongly on 175-2 Sri Lanka tamely handed over the advantage to India when they lost 4 good wickets for 23 runs in what coach Moody described as “45 minutes of madness.” India is currently having a substantial lead and can exert enough pressure on us to get into a match winning position. Well, to put your money on a Sri Lankan victory from here is not the best thing to do, but we all know cricket is funny game. Lets see how the last 2 days unfolds.

    ya true... Srilanka batted well. I actually thought after that match, srilakna would win the other 2.. but was so sad to see they lost both.
