A very easy win for India there is no doubt for the result within 8 session the match was over the pitch was more difficult to bat in the first hour but 92 from shreyas helped to put very decent score in the 1st innings. In the lights swing and length was very perfect by Bumrah and Shami taken 6 wickets in the 1st day and other 4 was taken in the 2nd day Sri Lanka bowled out for 109. In the 2nd innings India batted very well fastest 50 from pant and 2 consecutive 50s from shreyas in 2 innings and they decide to declared at 303 for 9. The target was 447. It was impossible to chase in though pitch the Sri Lanka skipper scored century but unfortunately they can't reach the target all out for 208 that's it finnally India clean wash series by 2-0. Let's wait for presentation....
Ashwin: I have not given any thoughts to the what I want apply in the game. It was how about I was built the series. The pink ball was very differ from red ball game so it's very difficult to get out batter so we bowl a couple of over and get good rhythm that's it. In Ahmedabad pink has more bounce and turn it's easy to caught out but in this test match were little bit tough it's was good learning from this pink ball match. Were Dimuth was Playing very wonderful with feet in the tough pitch. I have bowl over the wicket for Mendis he was played solid defence so only I came to round bowling to him.
Axar Patel: I not hesitate to be the third spinner in the team. I know the world class tow spinners Ashwin and Jedaja start the innings. We know Ashwin the best. We discuss about the length when I came to bowl I have excute the my strength bowl and within over I understand the length then executed very well. We bonded in Delhi Capitals I obsuly miss him lot but in any way auction is unpredictable
Dimuth Karunaratne | Sri Lanka captain: I would more happy when we being a winning side,but it's tough in this pitch. I was more working on my batting but other batters would not captilize the opportunity. The bowlers were did very well but more lose ball in an each over to wouldn't control the runs. I am appreciate experience like Lakmal to give more prominent performances to the team. I was congratulate him for his upcoming county series
Shreyas Iyer | Player of the Match : That's not actual batting. I was seeing other batters was struggling in the pitch so I decided to attack the ball and put the pressure on the bowlers when I was mid 50s bowlers came in I have managed with them for 40 runs. I have not think about the hundred my mindset to score runs for team as much as possible I want score more runs also more help from shami and Bumrah at the last I have always dream to play the test cricket now it's achived so I want keep on going
Rishabh Pant | Player of the series : I think both (batting and keeping) was important. I have made mistake in the past but I improving my skills. It's not my mindset. The pitch was very difficult to bat I was thinking to score runs fastly as the team management wants me to do (on the position 5) I think it's more about confidence in past I will think more while batting now I only focus on the each ball
Rohit Sharma | India captain : I have enjoyed it personally as well as team wise the performance. No doubt about (Ravindra Jadeja) his batting was terrific day by day all over fielding and bowling as usual at number 7 position. His T20 form(Shreyas) was clinical with not out at the situation he was continuing in test as well he will remember that replacing like Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane in the place he done work properly. He seems to get better in batting (Rishabh Pant) In previous test in England at home was difficult pitch he bated very well his confidence was high with his catches and stumping as well. With the ball(Ashwin) was legend of the game when ever he gets the ball do something special to the team. It's was more challenging in the pink ball at the third time we were learning more about conditions. It's was pleased to have fans to cheer in the ground.
