Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews embarrassed by defeat to India

Angelo Mathews admits that he was left feeling embarrassed following Sri Lanka's defeat to India in the fourth one-day international.

Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews has admitted that he felt embarrassed after his side were beaten by 153 runs in the fourth one-day international against India.

Rohit Sharma stole the show with a record-breaking knock of 264 at Eden Gardens, and Mathews claimed that Sri Lanka's inability to respond to the batsman's attacking approach was disappointing as the hosts moved 4-0 ahead in the five-match series.

"It is embarrassing that we are not even competing. We lost our way in the last 20 overs. It is not acceptable. Our bowlers didn't have any answers today," the Sri Lanka skipper told reporters.

"We need to fix our problems. We need to get everything - batting, bowling and fielding - right.

"To score 290 in the last 25 is unbelievable. Nothing can be taken away from Rohit, though."

The two sides will meet in the fifth ODI in Ranchi on Sunday.
