In home soil Srilanka give trouble India also 2001, 2003 , 2004 Asia cup , 2005 Castrol tri series. From 2008 India started dominated Srilanka in Srilanka. From 2008 India won every Bi- lateral series in Srilanka also won 2010 Asia cup.
and pre 1996 india smashed lankans. also from 1997 india returned the favour beating the lankans 7 times in a row. from 2000 to 2005 it was 50-50. after 2005 great india owns srilanka. treating them like a road rag. lol
@@rakshithr8793 If all these bull-shit coming out from your mouth were true, you wouldn't have come here with a burning butt to protest against the slaughtering you have received at the hand of Srilanka over the years even during the era when you started to get a bit of upper hand. 2008 Asia cup Final, Three Tri-nation finals in 2010 including the Idea cup, Micromax cup and Zimbabwe cup defeat to Srilanka, Elimination from the tri- nation CB series in Australia at the hand of Srilanka in 2012, Losing the Asia cup & World T/20 to Srilanka in 2014, losing miserably in Champions Trophy 2017 even after posting a 320+ totals, these are your recent butt-hurt memories against Srilanka. The current miserable situation in Srilanka Cricket is also the result of henious politics and evil role played by bloody Amit Shah's son.
I can never understand how Arjuna plays such elegant shots with well, not a very athletic looking physique. But he is a remarkable player. His batting has something extra beautiful about it. Always loved to see him batting.
Srilanka of the late 90's... was literally unstoppable... Had there been a successor to Ranatunga, their winning streak would have extended well beyond..
Thank a lot...I was waiting for this video for 14 years...very rear rear rear video....not a single person had this...the highest knock in odi arjuna scored 131 not out in 1997...I watched in TV when I was 11...down memory lane...again thanks a lot
In 90’s Sri Lanka won ODIs coz of Jayasuriya Aravinda and Arjuna. They were the batting hub for Sri Lanka. Others ( Kalu, Guru, Roshan, Hashan and Marvan) supported well during that time.
This was a comeback match for Azhar after he was dropped for the Independence Cup held in India for his poor form during India's disastrous tour of the Carribean early that year. And he made a grand comeback indeed.
Waiting for so long and requesting so many uploaders to upload this video. Finally got it. Thank you so much. I was less than nine years old back then. But this innings made such a heroic impact in my mind that I still remember it.
as sportsman i saw several players are playing in our country for long time here from now you donot see a complete looking good sports shot is playing ranatunga i saw many players cover drive and cut shot towards point place now i realize in my adult age arjuna is the most wonderful batsman for past 2 decades i am telling this because all sportsman has to respect a all types of shots in cricket Welldone coach arjuna ranatunga u16 school sportsman scout younus
This shows what a meek team india was under sachins captaincy.Ranatunga was allowed a runner just for being unfit.Noways Ganguly would have allowed that .1997 was a disaster year for india especially against Srilanka
Cricket King Zohaib, any chance you've got to upload Arjuna Ranatunga's maiden odi hundred "101 odi innings vs pak" from Mandela Trophy 1994 tournament, please let me know.
Rare times that Ranatunga batted for long in an Odi match. He will bat at 5 or 6 with less overs remaining. Played some good strokes. Sachin was looking good at 21. Jadeja should be coming a little up the order. Azhar played very well
We gave too much respect for Srilankan team...plus Sachin was the worst captain we had in the last 30 years.. Played his mumbai friends like Kanitkar and Kuruvilla ...
Indian team that time was extremely mediocre like zimbabwe of today and Srilanka.....If Sachin was oit early match was gone , no bench strength , mediocre players ........
Arjuna Ranatunga would've never played in the national team if he was in India He was a burden on the field and just an average player He was neither some MASEEHA CAPTAIN as many try to prop him up in India His brother Sanjeeva Ranatunga was a far better player than him Another brother Nishanta Ranatunga was also a highly talented all rounder Who screwed their career is another question
He was a great ,visionary leader, he built a team to win world cup with great dedication . He even provide shelter and food to players from outside the colombo . He was not an average player , his average is more than enough to that cricket in era. He played so many match winning innings. Though he had big tummy , he was a good and safe fielder. Soo your idea is completely wrong.
