[andrew_nixon]

As I always say..... only post updates at the close of play.

 

[andrew_nixon]

India B beat India A in the final round robin match.

Result

India B: 340/2 (Mongia 121, Yuvraj Singh 111 not out)
India A: 225 all out (Gambhir 58, Mongia 4/31)

India B win by 82 runs (D/L Method)

An excellent all-round performance from Mongia.

These two teams will meet again in the final tomorrow.

Dinesh Mongia was dropped the very first ball of the innings by Mithun Minhas at second slip. It was actually a sitter.

 

[Nirav85]

maybe they should be updated at then end of the innings...just so people know...

 

[andrew_nixon]

The reason why I say updates only at the close of play, is because if people did them whenever they liked, we could end up with several for each day! Just one (and in the standard format which no-one else does) should be fine. If you want to know the score at some other time, we are all perfectly capable of going to cricinfo.

India A won the final of the tournament.

Result

India A: 314/6 (Tendulkar 88, Sriram 70, Gavaskar 50)
India B: 215 all out (Bahutule 55 not out)

India A win by 99 runs.

Good to see Tendulkar back on form.
