UPDATE 2-Cricket-One Day International India v Sri Lanka scoreboard

20:19 (IST) India bounced back after a shambolic show in Dharamshala and it was their captain who led the way with a historic landmark smashing third double century helping the hosts to put on a monumental score of 392. Rohit Sharma dazzled on a hazy day in Mohali to give us a spectacle that would remembered for a long time. Sri Lanka were never in the game after losing their openers early and with Chahal ripping out the middle order with three crucial wickets. Angelo Mathews waged a lone battle to score a century. We enjoyed bringing you the live coverage from the second ODI. Do join us for the decider on Sunday that will be played in Vizag. That will be all from us tonight as we bid goodbye. Full Scorecard Even when empty a stroll around the Waca is an evocative one. Though the seats are sun-bleached the paint peels off in many places and the slightly ramshackle facilities are a throwback to the past this outgoing Ashes venue still feels mighty special. Remembering the Waca Ground: a Test track that was a highway to hell | Russell Jackson Read more Before arriving the first thing you spot while walking down Hay Street or Adelaide Terrace perhaps with a detour through the pretty Queens Gardens are the six imposing floodlights. Each one becomes more and more like a giant Iron Man (Ted Hughes not Marvel) staring down on the crisp green outfield as you pitch up and enter through the gates. Up on the rickety old scoreboard on non-match days sit the names of Western Australia s team of the 20th century (plus a 12th man) from down the years: G Marsh Wood Langer Inverarity K Hughes Shepherd Moody Yardley McKenzie Lillee R Marsh (wk) and Alderman these are the giants upon whose shoulders modern local players stand. Park up on one of the exposed grassed banks that have roasted many a supporter over the years and past deeds of derring-do come to mind. It is a stage of many highlights from Adam Gilchrist s 57-ball hundred to Curtly Ambrose s spell of seven for one Doug Walters hooking the final ball from Bob Willis for six to complete a century in a session Dennis Lillee s many bravura bowling performances (or his aluminium bat) through to Ryan Harris trimming Alastair Cook s off bail with a pearler four years ago. Cricket has been played on this reclaimed swamp land since 1890 but Western Australia needed first rail and then air links to truly enter the fold. And thus Perth is in fact relatively young when it comes to hosting men s Test matches with its first in 1970 (although the women as ever were slightly ahead with Australia and England meeting here in 1958). From there it gained a reputation as the fastest pitch in the world with the button-down shirt machismo of Lillee and Jeff Thomson terrorising touring batsman just ask David Lloyd he of the split box in 1974-75 and the lineage of Australian quicks to enjoy it continued through to Merv Hughes Glenn McGrath Brett Lee and Mitchell Johnson to name but a few. A relaid square in the late 1980s may have seen some of the pace lost but try telling that to batsmen since with Justin Langer one of the Waca greats recalling the experience of facing Pakistan s Shoaib Akhtar on a flyer in 2004. Ricky Ponting and I were just laughing our heads off because we could have got a single every ball given how far Moin Khan the wicketkeeper was standing back. I was very happy letting the captain take the strike. When you re batting at the end with the sea breeze behind the bowler you feel alive. Ashes lessons so far: from Australia s fab four to England s failure to convert | Rob Smyth Read more Swing bowlers such as Terry Alderman and Damien Fleming prospered too and while spinners have not always come to the fore it was the one Australian ground upon which Shane Warne did not claim a five-for batsmen have still been able to tuck in with the Waca the scene of Matthew Hayden s then world record 380 against Zimbabwe in 2003 and David Warner now heading to a ground where he averages 89 including three Test centuries. But this week the Waca plays host to its final Ashes Test. Sitting to the east across the Swan River and visible from the Lillee-Marsh Stand is the new Aus 1.5bn Optus Stadium. It is a hulking 60 000-capacity arena that will soon take over hosting the highest-profile cricket matches and provided funds arrive the Waca (23 000 at best) will be revamped but downsized to become a boutique venue for less marketable opposition. It s evolution John Inverarity the former WA captain and Australian selector whose name sits on that scoreboard says. There s a new stadium and why wouldn t you play big audience matches there? I feel less concerned than some. The Waca was my life for many years but I think the stadium will be right for the comfort of fans. Thursday s third Test will be an Ashes swansong that almost wasn t too. Had the snazzy new bowl in Burswood met its deadline and not seen its curtain-raiser put back to January for the fifth one-day international of this tour the Waca would have simply drifted out of Ashes cricket without a chance for one last visit from the Fremantle Doctor the afternoon wind that provides respite for fielding sides or those frazzling in the old stands that offer little shade. Though England Lions will take on Perth Scorchers in two Twenty20 friendlies at the Optus this week the senior team instead get one final Test at a venue that with nine defeats and just one win from 13 visits represents their least productive of those in double figures. Sitting 2-0 down with three to play it has been already heavily noted that history is not on the side of Joe Root s tourists. But whatever the result they can say they were part of it this week as Ashes cricket says farewell to the Waca. Pilots working for Ryanair in Ireland have called a one-day strike next week potentially disrupting flights for Europe s biggest airline on its home territory. Flights to and from Dublin Shannon and Cork are likely to be affected by the walkout on Wednesday. The action has been taken in a bid to win collective representation in pay dealsrather than through Ryanair s own employee channels. Ryanair said it would face down the strike though it admitted some disruption may occur . Up to 117 pilots in the Irish Airline Pilots Association (Ialpa) union part of Ireland s second-biggest trade union Impact are expected to take action which Ryanair said is less than a third of the pilots it employs in Ireland. However the union said that the 117 represent almost 90% of pilots directly employed by Ryanair and the majority are captains a rank needed on every flight. It said the walkout would either cause significant disruption or costs for Ryanair if it replaced them with captains from other European bases. Crew and pilots in Italy are also planning action on Friday while pilots in Portugal have also voted to strike. Ryanair has told cabin crew in Italy that action by any one member will see their entire base lose rights to transfers or promotions. The airline said: Ryanair will deal with any such disruptions if or when they arise and we apologise sincerely to customers for any upset or worry this threatened action by less than 28% of our Dublin pilots may cause them over the coming days. Ryanair has told pilots who strike that they will be in breach of their agreements conducted by the airline separately with each base and lose benefits including guarantees over rosters and pay and be denied promotion. It said its pilots had been offered 20% pay deals adding: Like any group of workers Ryanair s very well paid pilots are free to join unions but like every other multinational Ryanair is also free under both Irish and EU law to decline to engage with unions. Impact said Ryanair was the only Irish-based airline that refused to recognise unions and the dispute was solely about winning independent representation for pilots in the company . It warned more strikes could follow. Ashley Connolly a union official said: Management s failed negotiating model has let down shareholders and tens of thousands of passengers whose flights were cancelled this year because company-controlled industrial relations proved incapable of recruiting and retaining enough pilots.
