I think Ishant sharma bowl well in line length but not good bounce at least 1m height of 2-3 games in a over need.That game should be through over off and mid wickets.
I think if you look at the surface there is nothing for the bowlers. But still our bowlers bowled really well. Especially Ishant (Sharma) and (Abhimanyu) Mithun are bowling really well," insisted Raina after the day's proceedings.
Then when India bats wickets fall like nine pins and then what will Raina say. He will say the pitch has changed now.
Similar was the case in first test. What bullshit talk.
The fact is that except for Zaheer Khan we don't have any bowler with potential to pick wickets at Test level. Kumble is retired now. Harbhajan is only one who comes close but still sometime he too disappoints. All the other bowlers are good for One-Dayers and T20s but not just good enough for Tests. In tests to be successful, one has to have variety and also know how to mix those deliveries well to set the batsman for a dismissal.
Since 2008, india won test matches only when india won toss and chosen to bat first. when evet india loses toss, india definitely lost the test match, or match is drawn. India didnt win a single test match when batted second since 2008.
It shows how our bowling strength is. India cant take wickets on first day pitch. So india cannot win test matches with such pace attack and spinners like bhajji who can take wickets only on 4th and 5th days..
this is flatest track almost dead..like paki fiasalabad and karanchi track where both indian and paki enjoyed batting an inning each in five day match. shame on lankan curator and sangakara who afraid of loosing match.

Indian batsmen are solely to blame. They could easily have drawn at least the first test. See how close they came. But by committing harikari and throwing wickets at regular intervals. Run outs. why runout in test match ?? where is the hurry??
AND LANKI'S THINKING THEY DONE GOOD JOB. RAINA IS RIGHT.. ONE THING IS SURE IF INDIAN PLAYER PLAY UPTO THEIR POTENTIAL THAN LANKI WILL RUN ARROUND THE PARK...
Amit Shah and his police officers should be punished.This should be an eye opener. These encounters are happening every day in congress ruled states and in maoist infested states.The rule should be same.Punish every one who kills criminals in encounter.CBI should probe veerapan murder and arrest jayalilitha,Maoist leader murder in AP and Jharkhand and arrest Rosiah and Chidambaram,batla house murder and arrest Shiela dixit .Also CBI should arrest army people who kill militants and protestors in Kashmir and also BSF jawans who kill pakistani jawans across the line of control.
