Galle ke maidan par Team India ka dabdaba is kadar haavi hai ki opposition players boundary rokne ke liye apni jaan ki baazi laga rahe hain. Fourth morning par kuch aisa hi dekhne ko mila jab Sri Lanka ke senior batter Dinesh Chandimal ek chauka rokne ke chakkar mein buri tarah zakhmi ho gaye. Halat itni serious thi ki unhe turant hospital le jaana pada. Jab India ke batters form mein hon, toh fielder ka haal aksar aisa hi hota hai.
The Guru Story
Incident tab hua jab India ki second innings ka fourth over chal raha tha. KL Rahul ne ek jabardast shot khela aur ball tezi se boundary ki taraf gayi. Dinesh Chandimal ne deep midwicket se deep square leg tak lambi sprint lagayi aur ball rokne ke liye ek horizontal dive mari. Unhone do runs toh bacha liye, lekin unka landing balance poori tarah bigad gaya. Unka shoulder aur neck zameen se zor se takraye aur wo legs-over-torso tumble kar gaye.
Field par maujood players aur physio turant unke paas pahunche. Dinesh Chandimal apne neck aur head ko pakde hue kaafi dard mein dikh rahe the. Kuch der baad wo uthe zaroor, lekin kafi gingerly chalte hue dressing room se bahar nikle. Sri Lanka cricket management ne koi risk na lete hue unhe precautionary scans ke liye hospital bheja hai. Agar report mein injury serious nikli, toh Pasindu Sooriyabandara ko unki jagah as a Concussion Substitute laya ja sakta hai.
Analysis & Numbers
- India ne pehli innings mein 462 runs banakar 178 runs ki massive lead hasil ki thi.
- Dinesh Chandimal ne pehli innings mein sirf 4 runs banaye the, jo dikhata hai ki wo pehle se hi pressure mein the.
- Agar Chandimal bahar hote hain, toh Sri Lanka ka middle order taash ke patton ki tarah bikharna tay hai.
- KL Rahul aur baaki Indian batters ki aggressive approach ne Lankan fielders ko thaka diya hai.
The Guru Gyan Verdict:
Seedhi baat ye hai ki jab aap India jaisi world-class team ke khilaaf khelte hain, toh aapko 200 percent dena padta hai. Dinesh Chandimal ki injury unki commitment dikhati hai, lekin ye Sri Lanka ke liye bada jhatka hai. India ne match par apni pakad mazboot kar li hai aur ab Lankans ke liye comeback karna namumkin lag raha hai. Dominance ise hi kehte hain ki opposition ball rokne ke liye hospital pahunch jaye!
