At the end of 3rd days play india is 140/3.
srilanka played their first innings beautifully and made 520/8.
once again indian bowling was worst.
well now after 3rd days play 3 key wicket of the indian side has gone.
now sewag holds the key.
will india survive follow on?
the best wicket of the day was the big wicket taken by the big man, sachins wicket by murali.
well now murali needs only 7 to reach 800 mark.
i feels that it will be easy for him.
the pitch is now turning out to be a spinning track.
if viru becomes out then the match will be on lankans side.
srilanka is on a strong position now , will they be able to convert their strength to a success?

India is trying hard to loose this game but this is not gonna happen very easily.There is very less time to be played in this match and i dont think srilanka have any chances to take 20 wickets of indian batsmen.Afterall india have a good batting lineup if not the bowling.........

I think it was really poor of India to allow Sri Lanka reach 520 after they 360 odd for 7. I think the old malaise of not being able to polish of the tail came back to haunt India. Then there was a mad run out and two more wickets that fell today to leave Sri Lanka in control of the match. The key for India is going to be Sehwag. If he stays till lunch then India should be fine, else it might just open the floodgates!!
Cheers!

ya its the indian bowling which nade the facing defeat for india.
indians allowed even the tail ender to score half centuries.
feeling shame on the bowling of world no:1 test team.
fortunately lankans declared otherwise the tailenders would have scored centuries.
now its the batsman showing the poor performance and making india defeat.

ya now srilanka do have a upper hand and they are on the driving seat, but follow on? i dont think it will happen.
but as you know sehwag holds the key.
he is the key wicket, lankans will be wishing to have.
this partnership should go on and make 100 atleast.
and dhoni and yuvi is there to bat we cant rate them out.
and harbajan too makes runs on test.
so keep belief in indian team.
