[Adarsh]

Thats it, can't see india winning it from here unless agarkar gets a couple of wickets soon.

 

[Cricketman]

if we lose it would be a really sad day...i got up at 3 am to watch the match . dravid and ghambir centuries in vain....but i shouldn't be talking too soon....

Sri Lanka are on verge of an emphatic win, and a much needed one as well. Full marks to the Srilankan middle order, they have played wonderfully well under pressure.

just 12 off 24 balls needed 5 wkts in hand the Lankans are on the verge to win thier first game of the series, poor bowling by India right at the depth, ecspeccialy Agarkar.

I don't really care if India lose.

What does it say about Lanka? Just pulling off a win against a team without two of its strike bowlers, and without its best, let alone the world's best, batsman?

6 of 18...what a waste......................

Oh wait, there's a hatrick!! and another 2 wickets in a row! india pull of a thriller......!i wish it went like that instead....

 

[Indiangod]

6 off 18 now, the Lankans have won, oh well Gambhir and Dravid centuries have something for the Indian fans to cheer about.

When they have a full side....and they didn't even beat us by a big margine....

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Exactly!

I am happy for Gambhir, we was without Tendulkar and Pathan, India scored a healthy 285 and the game went right down to the 48th over, India's without thier main bowlers.

UPdate: Srilanka won by 5 wickets, with Dilshan and Arnold seeing through with a wonderful 5th wicket partnership.

I think India lost its way in the middle overs, when none of the batsman could help Dravid. Apart from Gambhir and Dravid, it was a below-par performance from India. And credit to SL, especially Mahroof, for putting pressure on the Indians.

Also what hurt india in the second session is lack of agressive captain, sehwag did well but not enough to convince us. He could have rotated his bowlers in the middle, like he could have replaced JP Yadav with RP singh or tried Y. Singh etc. Even the fielding positions were poor, it could have been more attacking.

Anyway, end of a very good match and SL fought back to win in some style.

Sri Lanka won- just as I expected

I predict the series would end up 5-2
