India win toss and surprisingly field!! I thought they would bat first considering they want the bonus point... And still no Tiwary, his Australia vacation will end today. Zak back for Irfan.

India will have to chase whatever Sri Lanka set in 40 overs to have a chance to qualify for the finals.

Irfan in both matches scored at least some runs and probably bowled well also .   Hard luck to him . Actually where Yuosuf Pathan .

I believe Sri Lanka is playing wonderful cricket Smile  216/1 in 40 overs

Leo

Oh, that's what Umeshji.. India are playing wonderful cricket Innocent Chasing the final target set in 40 overs, they're gonna have their work cut out. But lets see, long shot, but could happen.

Dhiraj Shenoy

Chasing  around 300 in less than 40 overs that too in our current form , i think its impossible in our dreams also . But if India has to chase this target and win it with in 40 overs , Then no doubt Sehwag has to fire and fire hard . If he gets going then any target can be chased .

Dhiraj Shenoy

Chasing around 325 .......

Leo

Not the DS i expected, but DS2 is good to see too Laughing

 

320 in 40 overs.. hard ask. Depends on Virender Sehwag and Tendulkar now. Need a flying start!

India win by 7 wkts with 13 overs to spare.. courtesy a mauling effort by Virat Kolhi.

Dhiraj Shenoy
from Bangalore

Wonderful knock , actually everybody scored runs quickly . Opening partnership of above 50 runs and Kolhi knock made the difference

Leo

Dhiraj Shenoy

No i know the reason behind today's performance .....

Leo
from Bengaluru
12 years ago

@DS: sure its not the day after? Innocent and suppose MSD is sacked, or Tendulkar is not selected etc. And India qualify for finals, would that affect team morale?

 

@DS2: No no. That's not the reason. Tongue out

 

MSD told in interview that now all are going to be shopping for 2 days. They wanted to leave early to enjoy the Tuesday night sales Cool

DS
from Mumbai

Its today! And anyways we are still not in the finals so dont know about the morale of the team!!
Dhiraj Shenoy

@ Leo , what did the shop for ???

Dhiraj Shenoy
from Bangalore

what did they shop for

Leo
from Bengaluru

God knows, Dhiraj. Shows the attitude though right? I mean, if there is a chance that you can get through to the finals of a tournament, then you would be preparing because if you do, you are ready, if u r not, you atleast keep urself fit for further matches later. Its like they've given up the hope.

DS
from Mumbai
12 years ago
lol:) They are bigger fans than me!! I dont think they deserve to be in the finals! Just because of one exceptional match in which they had nothing to loose, they have been crappy last two months!!!
Kirti
from Kharagpur, west bengal
12 years ago

you have no idea. my dad thinks they performed exceptionally well in the last match which was a very tough task for any team under so much pressure :P

DS
from Mumbai
12 years ago
That was exceptional but they had nothing to loose. Especially after Sri Lanka scored 321, no one expected us to win. So they just went for their shots and it came off.
DS
from Mumbai
12 years ago
Chal bye NS! Will talk later:)
DS
DS

They've lost hope now itself DS. And they wonder why some fans are beginning to doubt their commitment.
