Heroes to Zeros, it is, what happened from Friday to Sunday, for both teams, one dipped down and the other raised high. Now it's time for both teams, to re-address their intent after one-sided games, as they move from Gallie to Hambantota.
Zimbabwean's swept the ball as well as they could against spin in the first ODI and in the second one, it seemed they are playing spin bowling for the first time in the Career. It’s also due to the unknown quality questions being posed by the young Lankan spinners.
Srilanka though will feel the momentum going into the third ODI, with bouncing back after a historic chase from the visitors. But the fielding still seems to be a concern, in the area they need to evolve with the young squad.
But it is the squad, that travelled to Champions Trophy, so the margins of winning and losing will be crucial for the hosts against the visitors. Building the confidence is key for the hosts, with the big series of the home season, looming up against India later in this month
While, for Zimbabwe being consistent, is the feat yet to be achieved whether it's in a match or in a series. And, it is where, the Series can take one turn or can make interesting for them, and to all.
Meanwhile, it all boils out, how gonna Zimbabwe play the young wrist spinners, which as turn out to be the order of the day in limited overs Cricket, for most teams as an attacking option.
