Phew! What a rollicking performance this has been by the Indian bowlers. Mohammad Shami leaked a few runs in his first two overs, but Mohammed Siraj took care of the bowling attack from the other end, as he struck twice in his first two overs to put Sri Lanka on the back foot instantly.
To be honest, there is nothing much to write about the batting side here. Sri Lanka were under the pump from the word go. Chasing a mammoth total does put the batting side under pressure even before coming out on the crease to chase it down. Sri Lanka lost five wickets in the first Powerplay. Only Nuwanidu Fernando the youngster got off to a start but even he could not survive Mohammed Siraj, who was in red hot form tonight. Sri Lanka kept losing wickets at regular intervals and eventually lost nine wicket for 73 runs. Earlier, in the match, Jeffrey Vandersay and Ashen Bandara collided and were taken off the field. Jeffrey Vandersay got replaced but Ashen Bandara remained on the sidelines as he was still in pain. Hence, the hands were shook before the final wicket.
Well, it certainly was a one-way traffic through this match. India have completed the whitewash here with a comprehensive win in the final and third ODI by 317 runs. It was mostly a Mohammed Siraj show during the chase and Sri Lanka never got an opportunity to breathe when their batters were at the crease. During the innings break, Gautam Gambhir when asked about the prediction, he jokingly said that India could win this by a margin of 300 runs. And boy, did India not put on a dominating show here.
