You guys are talking as if it was a crime for Chamika to score so many runs in the last few overs. I can understand the criticism if the top order had contributed and Chamika's slow start had put a spanner in the works. If not for him, Dambulla would have gone down in a heap.
As I said before. I am not blaming Chamika for the loss. That's something you've introduced to this argument. I never said it was a crime to score runs later either. I've also literally said I don't blame him for his approach when they were 5 down with a huge total to chase.
All I said was his slow start didn't help an already 90% lost cause.
Sorry if that upsets you.
Why are you harping on his slow start when that wasn't the cause the match had already gone by then. You are totally ignoring the fact others didn't contrtibute at all and that is the reason the match was lost.
