Sri Lanka v India, 3rd Test, Day 4 - Tough task ahead for Sri Lanka


The last time an Indian team won a Test series in Sri Lanka was twenty two years back. After so many years, the opportunity for India to break the jinx is just seven wickets away. The body language of the Sri Lankans say that they lack the fighting spirit and they are a tired unit. It is expected that the Indians will wrap up the match quickly in the final day. The good thing is that the possibility of a result in this Test match is maximum until and unless rain shows up again to spoil the party. But, the Lankans will not mind at all if the rain does show up tomorrow.

The fans of Rohit Sharma are happy as because his bat smiled in a very crucial juncture of the match. It was a counterattacking knock which gave the Indian innings momentum after being reduced to 7 for 3 at one stage. People say that Rohit is extremely talented, but what is the use of that talent if it does not dazzle consistently? Personally, I admire the consistent performers more than those talents who dishes out a fine knock once-in-a-blue-moon. I still believe that the Indian Test team needs Pujara more than Rohit.

Can Sri Lanka maintain their impressive home record against India? Can Sri Lanka deny India from a victory? The Lankans have a task ahead tomorrow.

Thank You
