This time it was the opposite as the fully represented Indian batting sent them on a leather hunt after being invited to bat first.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Chasing 373 was a daunting target from the outset. But the Sri Lanka batters for once took on the challenge but fell short by 67 runs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Shanaka has been widely and unfairly criticised for his leadership in the shorter formats. But the purists fail to see or acknowledge his success rate which has been the best since the days of their great leaders of the past,\u00a0 Mahela Jayawardena and Kumar Sangakkara.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Dasun Shanaka in full flight is one of the best exponents of the game.\u00a0 He can take the best bowling attacks in the world apart with his wonderful hand-eye coordination and exceptional timing as the Indians, and Australians witnessed in their recent encounters. Given more support from his team mates,\u00a0 his contribution can swing things in Sri Lanka&#8217;s favour. There could also be a case to bring him in earlier to settle the middle order issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">After a poor showing in the T20 format,\u00a0 Sri Lanka showed more fight in the first one-dayer and they can perhaps dwell on the positives to try and upset the high riding Indians.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">What will be challenging for them however, will be the return to form of Indian superstar Virat Kohli who smashed a whirlwind century in the first game, making the strong Indian batting line-up more lethal and hard to contain.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Sri Lanka&#8217;s counter has to be a focus on their batting to remain in the contest. Apart from Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis at the top, their middle order definitely need redress for their minimal input.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">The sad performance in the middle has forced the Sri Lanka selectors to dig deep and include a talented youngster in Dinuth Wellelage to try to turn things around. Against one of the best bowling attacks in the world,\u00a0 the Lankans will have to be on top of their game to avoid further humiliation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Sri Lanka&#8217;s bowling is depleted without their superstars, Dushmantha Chameera and Lahiru Kumara and this could be the reason they will be faced with big run chases.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Their batsmen hold the key to any success.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shanaka dazzles in a losing effort.
