Editor’s Pick (ODI): India

Editor’s Pick (ODI): India - Sri Lanka IV

The men in blue are on a roll. They have won all the matches that they have played in Sri Lanka so far. And it annoyed the Sri Lankan fans at the stadium so much that they started throwing things onto the field. Now, we have also done that in the past. Remember the 1996 World Cup match in India. Semi-Finals. Both teams had a really really fantastic lineup. Remember the days of the Jaysuriyas and Ranatungas. That was the team that could hit a century in less than ten overs. And India, having just defeated Pakistan, were the obvious favourites. With a target of a fairly low 252, India could have made it. But wickets tumbled. And Kolkata could not handle it. Threw a tantrum (among other things) onto the field. The match was awarded to Sri Lanka.

And now, amidst Sri Lanka’s embarrassing defeat streak, the Sri Lankan selectors have thrown in the towel. All of them. Including Jayasuriya. They feel the need for fresh blood to pick players.

Tests

1st Test – India 600 & 240-3d beat Sri Lanka 291 and 245 by 304 runs

2nd Test –India 622-9d beat Sri Lanka 183 & 386 by an innings and 53 runs

3rd Test –India 487 beat Sri Lanka 135 & 181 by an innings and 171 runs

ODIs

1st ODI – Sri Lanka 216 lost to India 220-1 by 9 wickets

2nd ODI –Sri Lanka 236-8 lost to India 231-7 by 3 wickets (D/L method)

3rd ODI – Sri Lanka 217-9 lost to India 218-4 by 6 wickets

India now won’t mind experimenting and trying out new players. They have nothing to lose. Literally. I was thinking I should experiment with my lineup as well.

Word of advice - the one who scores most - make him your captain. Double your score.

Blog Time: I won in Fantain 2.0. And I didn’t shell out a penny.

I won. This is a big deal for me. I have never won any money on any online competition or game ever. Until now. When I heard Fantain Fantasy Sports was coming up with a new version of the game - the paid version, I thought, “I have only managed to win a few coupons here and there. Wonder how much money will I have to pay?”

And I saw that they were issuing FanCash. Does that mean no money to be deposited at my end? That’s right. I applied the code that I saw on their FaceBook page and used it in my updated app. And voila. My credit went up by 25. I went through all the games that were showing up on my page. I did my research on the players and created various lineups. The process was just as simple as it was before. I submitted my lineup in various matches, playing both free and the paid pools.

I was eagerly waiting for my results. And I tell you, the wait is just as exciting. I had won every paid match that I played in. The beautiful words “Congratulations, you have won” in a nice gr…
