ICC earning demerit points for inconsistent system

Are match officials more tolerant of poor player behaviour in some series than in others, and why do some players get pulled up for dangerous throws when some others don't?

Being called the best keeper is a big morale boost - Saha

While many statistics were discussed during the SSC Test, a simple number right there on the scorecard was missed: Wriddhiman Saha conceded zero byes in the second innings, which lasted 116.5 overs

Karunaratne produces narrative-changing knock

Dimuth Karunaratne has gone from regularly being on the verge of getting dropped to becoming one of Sri Lanka's most consistent batsmen of 2017 - and shown the stomach for a fight while at it

Languid, loose, luckless

Is he this blinding talent that is constantly checked by blameless adversity? Is he on a career-long quest to tick off every bizarre dismissal? Where does the bad luck end? Where does Upul Tharanga begin?

Ashwin having a ball with the new ball

To add to his weaponry, R Ashwin has now become a successful new-ball bowler too. In fact, since 2001, he is now the most successful spinner with the new ball

04-Aug-2017•Sidharth Monga at SSC

Ashwin racing past the allrounder's milestones

Stats highlights from the second day's play at the SSC in Colombo, where India amassed a huge total and passed milestones along the way

India raid the fruit orchard

In happier times, Sri Lanka's pep can withstand a few boundaries and aggressive opposition batsmen. This team, however, is low on reserves of self-belief, which was evident throughout a chastening first day at the SSC

03-Aug-2017•Andrew Fidel Fernando at the SSC

Same old Pujara, all-new approach

While scoring his 13th Test hundred, Cheteshwar Pujara showed a new-found willingness to take calculated risks to manipulate Sri Lanka's fields and open up his favoured scoring areas

03-Aug-2017•Sidharth Monga at the SSC

Pujara in Sri Lanka: Three Tests, three tons

Sachin Tendulkar is the only overseas batsman to score more centuries than Cheteshwar Pujara in Sri Lanka

Kohli's drops in slips may cost India dearly

Numbers tell you India are not good at slip, and the captain is the worst of them all. When they start travelling to play better oppositions, these drops might start hurting them badly again

02-Aug-2017•Sidharth Monga in Colombo

Should India continue with Dhawan and Abhinav?

With KL Rahul almost 100% fit, India are in a dilemma: to leave out Abhinav Mukund or Shikhar Dhawan, or to continue with the winning combination for the second Test?

01-Aug-2017•Sidharth Monga in Colombo

Sri Lanka need to solve the Dilruwan Perera conundrum

By impressing in the role he hasn't been picked for, the frontline spinner has made his case as a batting allrounder

28-Jul-2017•Andrew Fidel Fernando in Galle

Back-up man Abhinav Mukund makes peace with his role

From being on the verge of giving up the game five years ago to making a comeback on the sheer weight of his runs, the stand-in India opener has come quite some way

28-Jul-2017•Sidharth Monga in Galle

Why captains choose not to follow-on these days

From 1981 till the famous Kolkata Test of 2001, almost 91% of the teams who could did enforce the follow-on in a Test. Since then, that number has dropped to 56.70%
