India vs Sri Lanka Highlights: Loss to Sri Lanka Shows India Guilty Of Playing Templated Cricket In ODIs news18.com
When the match between India and Sri Lanka commenced at the Oval on Thursday, one could only see tricolours. The boisterous Indian support kept on rallying behind the 'Men in Blue' for 75 overs on an overcast day in the English capital.
There was the 'Mexican Wave', the dhol and the bhangra and the usual 'jeetega bhai jeetega India jeetega chants' all through. But as the duo of Danushka Gunathilaka and Kusal Mendis took centrestage and put the Lankans right back into the match, the Sri Lankan fans started making an appearance in the crowd. By the time Sri Lanka skipper Angelo Mathews and Gunaratne wrapped up the chase in the 49th over, the Indian tricolours had vanished and the Sri Lankan Lion was out there to be seen by all. Yes, David had beaten Goliath and how.
