3 Reasons for Defeat Against Sri Lanka: The Indian team, which won the T20 format on the Sri Lanka tour, has suffered a crushing defeat in the ODI series. The first match of the series between the two teams was played in Colombo on August 2. This match was drawn without any result. After this, both the teams once again came face to face in Colombo on August 4. Here the host team managed to win by 32 runs. The third match of the series was very important for Team India. On August 7, once again both the teams came face to face in Colombo, but this time also the result was the same. The host team managed to win by a huge margin of 110 runs. After the completion of the series, the Indian team is being criticized a lot. In such a situation, if we talk about the 3 main reasons for the defeat of the Blue Team, then they are as follows-

India’s weak performance against spin

As seen in the history of cricket, the host team often lays a net of spinners to perform well on their ground. The same kind of scene was seen this time as well. The spinners of the host team always dominated against the Indian batsmen. As a result, after drawing the first ODI, the Indian team had to face defeat in the last two matches. Due to which they had to lose the series as well.

Middle order collapsed:
If we talk about the biggest villain of India’s defeat in ODI format, then it was the middle order batsmen. During the entire series, the bowlers and openers did their job well, but when it was the turn of the middle order to take up its responsibility, all the stalwarts failed here. As a result, India had to lose the series 2-0.

Virat’s bat remained silent

Virat Kohli has played an important role in India’s victory in the last few years. However, he went to the pavilion cheaply in all three matches against Sri Lanka. His getting out cheaply was a big blow for India. As a result, the team had to lose the series.
