SRT, with all his 20 years of cricket, handling the ball from a newcomer Lakmal and giving a silly catch at short extra cover is disgusting. Worst, appealing desperately for third umpire's review is not at all magnanimous for his stature. It's high time that he bows out gracefully like Rahul Dravid.
And an earnest request for the selectors of Team India: How many chances you want to give for SRT's hundredth 100? Please make room for youngsters by giving complete rest to SRT. Do not allow him to play for the next ODI and becoming a laughing stock at the hands of Bangladeshi and Pakistani cricketers.

If players appeal for confirmation if the catch was clean its called Competetive spirt, and now if SRT does it, you call it non magnanimous. That's the strangest thing I've heard this year
How many players can u recall who after playing 23 years can score 1083 runs in 22 odi's ? There is one I can recall & he's Sachin Tendulkar
