Re: India Vs SriLanka … ICC World Cup Final on 2nd April
Not just batting but chasing esp. is Pakistan’s biggest problem. Had Sri Lanka batted first in that game (against Pakistan), it w’d have been a different ball game altogether. They would have made 260-280 and we would have lost the game for sure. Mind you they (266) still almost beat us chasing a formidable 277. So Sri Lanka still the better team than Pakistan for me.
Chasing anything over 270 is never easy esp. in the ultimate pressure game, a world cup final and india got there comfortably in the end winning by 6 wickets and despite the early loss of Sehwag and Sachin. Not many teams can do that
