India Suffers 2-0 Series Loss to Sri Lanka
India's recent ODI series against Sri Lanka saw significant struggles, particularly against spin bowling, leading to a historic 2-0 series loss for the first time in 27 years. Virat Kohli's inability to handle Sri Lankan spinners, getting out LBW in all three matches, and the overall batting collapse were highlighted by commentators like Aakash Chopra and Ashish Nehra. Nehra criticized new head coach Gautam Gambhir's decision to include veterans Kohli and Rohit Sharma, arguing it was a missed opportunity to test younger players. Despite Rohit Sharma's individual success, scoring 157 runs in three innings, the Indian team faltered, with the final match ending in a 110-run loss. The Sri Lankan spinners, particularly Dunith Wellalage, played a crucial role, with Wellalage claiming five wickets in the third ODI.
