In a shock that reverberated through the cricketing world, Team India suffered a humiliating 2-0 defeat at the hands of Sri Lanka in the recently concluded ODI series. This marked the fi📖rst time in 27 years that India has lost a bilateral ODI series to their island neighbors.

Sri Lanka’s dominance across all departments

The series defeat has exposed chinks in India’s armor, prompting serious questions about the team’s preparedness and ability to adapt to different conditions. While꧑ the team was dominant in the preceding T20I series, the ODI format proved to be a different ball game altogether.

Sri Lanka, led by a rejuvenated bowling attac🌺k and a confident batting lineup, outclassed India in all departments. The Indian batters struggled against the spin-friendly conditions, with the middle order in particular coming under severe scrutiny. The bowling unit also failed to deliver consistent breakthroughs, putting immense pressure on the batsmen.

Impending review and potential changes

Captain Rohit Sharma expressed his disappointment at the team’s performance, admitting that the loss was a wake-up call. The series loss has undoubtedly dented India’s confidence and will be a subject of intense scrutiny in the coming weeks. The team management will havℱe to work hard to restore morale and prepare the squad for the upcoming challenge🍌s.
