Australia have matched SL with the ball by far. Any chance for them here for a win?

The Aussie bowlers have got their tails up and bowling really well. They have been very accurate by far and SL batsmen had to pull back their plan of counter attacking.

40% of fans (Most Australians) believe they can defend 74 in a poll (Twitter). Do you also believe?

As for me no. But prompted to ask this question bcz 40% believe they can!
SL 37/4 now! Now they are within a chance but still its far away.
RSRD:- It was poor batting yes. But if the target was 175 it would still have being chased. Both teams approaches were different bcz the target was 75. Australia were very aggressive while SL panicked a bit trying to finish it off quickly. But a target around 175 would make SL batsmen to play their normal game and still will be chased.

Its what cricket is all about. Last match SL chased 175 easily but this time struggled to chase 75. It depends on the nature of the game. Today is a low scoring game. In such games teams struggling to chase lesser targets. Next day can a be high scoring game.

What matters is SL won at the end and took the lead of the series.

Dinith, I think the poll has something to do with the next match. lol

I feel the 40% who said yes were not so serious while answering the poll. Getting a team all out for that is not as tough as is defending the same score.

Sri Lanka knows well that they have a low score to chase, in 50 overs at a run rate less that 1.5 per over...They'd just try to keep wickets in hand and runs would come automatically.

Even if the Aussies bowl better than Lanka, still they stand little chance, or no chance to win.

the 40% max. are the Oz fans.... they are just supporting their team as patriotism ... they want their team to win... but i dont think Aussies are going to hit bull's eye.

2 chances but I think it bucky and none. A miracle unlike to happen.

That 40% are in the bars drowning their sorrows.

S.L Will Win By 5 or 6 Wickets.

What’s happening with Sri Lanka’s batting? They won by just 4 wickets. Wonder what would have happened had the target was 100.

Aussies didn`t match Sri Lanka with ball..Just that Sri Lanka batted so poorly
