Who is that spinner who single-handedly defeated India, dismissed Rohit-Kohli-Gill-Iyer, sent KL-Dubey back to 0


New Delhi. An old Sri Lankan spinner made the Indian batsmen’s condition worse in the second ODI. The Indian team was scoring runs at a run rate of more than 7 at one point. The Indian team which had scored 95 runs in 13 overs without losing any wicket, was hit by Jeffrey Vandersay in such a way that the Rohit brigade groaned. There was such a fall of wickets that India’s score went from 97 runs to 150 runs for 6 wickets.

The second ODI match between India and Sri Lanka was played on Sunday. Sri Lanka batted first and scored 240 runs for 9 wickets. In reply, India was all out for 208 runs in 42.2 overs. Jeffrey Vandersay took the maximum 6 wickets for Sri Lanka in this match. The special thing is that he/she dismissed India’s top-6 batsmen. his/her bowling analysis was 10-0-33-6. This is the third best performance of any spinner against India. The first two best performances are by Muttiah Muralitharan and Ajantha Mendis.

I saw such a victory after many years, my tears welled up, I started shouting, Gold is coming after 44 years… said Dhanraj Pillai
