It's a transplant pitch-Kotla pitch fiasco

23.4 Tyagi to Kandamby, 1 wide, sharper still, as this one flies up off the track past the batsman, hitting one of those treacherous patches, and Dhoni does really well to stop the ball with one hand, a wide is called for some reason...

This was the last ball,that led the Srilankan captain to call-off their players from the middle and the match was abandoned for quite sometime and after an hour the match was almost cancelled...To be more surprise there was not even an Presentation at the ground the crowd would have felt happy at least after watching the presentation,though the money back has been guaranteed,the people would not felt happy..They were looking for the match..But the officials had no other option to call-off the match considering the future physical injuries to the players.

One more thing to be noted up is that,Kotla has been given 4 of the world cup matches to be played there and this Pitch fiasco has created a lot of tension among the BCCI and DCDA,since the ground could face a ban of at-least 18 months and then the ICC will look further considering the matches to be played at kotla

India go up 3-1

The Eden gardens has always been a special ground and one of the best grounds in INDIA,and it was the same venue where The Lankans were declared as winners during the semi-finals of 1996 world cup after the match was abandoned due to some reasons and many knew what was it and it was the ground that saw Vinod Khambli leaving the ground with tears in his eyes,and Dec 24 happened to be another day-night ODI encounter b/w India and Srilanka and The lankans winning the toss and electing to bat first and luckily getting the wicket of Dangerous dilshan first and managed to control the lankans to make 316 In spite of Losing dilshan early and Indians to the reply losing both the openers with just 4 overs being bowled and I was upto the Young Virat Kohli and the test cricketer of the year Gambhir



Being in the pressure of losing two quick wickets,Both of them batted brilliantly,rotating the strike and boundaries coming in time and they played hard and the good thing was both the batsman came up with their centuries and made sure that the run rate was below 6.5,Kohli made his maiden ODI ton along with Gambhir making his 7th odi ton put on a record breaking partnership of 224 for the third wicket and India successfully chased the highest total in the Eden Gardens and It was Gambhir who batted through out the Innings made a magnificent 150,and the Highlight of the match was that,Gambhir told Kohli to come up and collect the MOM,before that Gambhir was adjudged as the MOM..
