The Reason behind the Failure of India’s Experienced Batting Line Up

India could score only 361 runs after batting twice in the first test in which they were beaten by an innings and 239 runs. Even a die-heart Sri Lankan fan could not even think in his wildest dream that the host side is going to show such dominance against the world’s most experienced batting line up. To be honest, I got surprised too. But then, what was the reason behind it?

 

Well, first of all poor selection of shot has been proven lethal for the Indians. Keeping my respect for the Sri Lankan spinners in tact, I would like to say that Indian batsmen totally failed to do what it takes to successfully face an experienced and quality bowling line up that Sri Lanka has. It was not that Sri Lankan bowlers were invincible. Rather, it was Indian batsmen who threw their wickets away.

 

In second, Sri Lankan spinners seemed to have a psychological edge over the Indian batsmen that worked pretty well for the hosts. With Ajantha Mendis being raved around in the media before the series kicked off, Indian batsmen, to some extent, might have given too much focus on Mendis. Thirdly, they failed to remain calm and poised while under pressure, and could not show enough patience needed to save the test.

It was really unbelievable for cricket fans to see that India's top order failed to protest Sri Lankan spin duo. What's the reason for their defeat? Sachin Tendulkar lost his natural play. I think old players should make chance for new comers. They are not able to face any slow ball. They have become old. If they want to continue their game to earn some more money then it should a hypocrisy for their country. Rahul Dravid the worst batsman I have not ever seen. He need to do practice cricket in Tennis ball if he afraid to face cricket ball.
