Sri Lanka Beat India Tri-Series Final

Sunday, August 29, 2010

India's rollercoaster ride in the Sri Lankan tri-series culminated with a 74-run loss in the final at the Rangiri Dambulla Stadium. Tillakaratne Dilshan's fluent 110 and skipper Kumar Sangakkara's aggressive 71 helped Sri Lanka post 299-8. Predictably, India found the going tough under lights, finishing with 225.


Losing the toss has been akin to losing the game in this tournament. Once Sangakkara had chosen to bat, India's best chance lay in hurting their opponents with new ball. But after Dilshan and Mahela Jayawardene had laid a solid 121-run foundation, it was Sri Lanka's game to lose.


India's innings followed a path not unexpected. Dinesh Karthik capped a miserable series --- 33 runs in five innings --- with a duck, wrongly given out caught behind off his thigh pad. Virender Sehwag scored a quick 28 before getting run out straying out of his crease during an appeal for LBW. Sri Lanka's seamers India's middle order --- Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Rohit Sharma and Suresh Raina --- offered the collective tensile strength of a glucose biscuit and only captain MS Dhoni held on, refusing to let go till the end.


Comprehensive middle order failure


Sri Lanka's seamers were expected to dominate the evening session, and they did. Suraj Randiv claimed Raina and Rohit, while dibbly dobbler Thisara Parera (3-36) accounted for Kohli and Yuvraj.


Yuvraj had a charmed innings of 26, once surviving a huge caught-behind appeal and then been caught off a no-ball. Kohli mistimed a slog to third-man while Yuvraj inside-edged to Sangakkara.


Raina and Dhoni seemed like restoring parity as they added 47 runs for the fifth wicket. With Rohit still left, India could have hoped for a miracle. But Raina skied a catch to cover trying to clear the mid-off off Randiv.


Kohli finished the tournament with 45 runs in three innings, Raina 69 in five, Rohit 20 in four and Yuvraj 75 in four. However, one can't read too much into these figures.


Weak bowling


With the exception of Munaf Patel (2-42) India's four-seamer attack fared poorly today. The tidy part-time spin of Yuvraj and Sehwag, however, minimised damages.


India needed new ball wickets and didn't get any. Things, however, could have been very different in the first over of the match. Praveen Kumar's fourth ball pitched in line and cut in as Jayawardene, playing across, was hit in front. Praveen's reluctant appeal for LBW wasn't upheld. Replays suggest the ball was going to knock off the leg bail.


Resultantly, Jayawardene played a steady 39 while his opening partner Tillakaratne Dilshan hammered a 36-ball fifty en route to his eighth ODI hundred. The opening stand was followed by another meaty 85-run stand with Sangakkara (71 off 62).


No 200+ target was chased down in this tournament yet. Only Sehwag could have changed that statistic, and his departure more or less sealed India's fate.


SL dominate noon session


Jayawardene fell trying to flick Ishant Sharma. An edge flew to Karthik at sweeper cover. Upul Tharanga (6) edged Yuvraj into Dhoni's gloves allowing India the briefest of comebacks. Sangakkara snatched the advantage back with his knock even as Dilshan slowed down while approaching his hundred.


Having got the landmark off 107 balls, Dilshan pulled Praveen into the hands of Ishant at deep backward square-leg. Munaf did India a huge favour when got Sangakkara to miscue a loft over cover.

Sri Lanka triangular series 2010: India v New Zealand, 6th ODI

Wednesday, August 25, 2010

India and New Zealand both faced a must-win situation entering the sixth match of the triangular series. India had only five points to New Zealand's seven; the situation was even more critical for the Indians. A no-result would have been of tremendous benefit for the Kiwis, making the weather and the pitch equally important for this fixture. Both teams vied for the right to play Sri Lanka in the final. India won the toss and elected to bat first on a dicey pitch.

MS Dhoni's decision looked equally dicey when Kyle Mills dismissed Dinesh Karthik for nought in the first over. Twenty-seven runs later, Virat Kohli became the first of four victims for Tim Southee on the day; India was 27/2 in the sixth over. Virender Sehwag continued to bat with authority, while Yuvraj Singh made six uncertain runs in a 34-run third-wicket partnership. Singh's misery ended with the score on 61. New Zealand reduced India to 66/4 before MS Dhoni and Virender Sehwag combined for a 107-run fifth-wicket partnership that rescued the Indians.


Sehwag's departure in the 33rd over precipitated a collapse that saw India move from 173/4 to 207/9. Sehwag made a brilliant century – 110 off 93 balls, with 16 fours and one six. MS Dhoni contributed a valuable 38 runs; Ravindra Jadeja was the only other batsman to cross double figures, with 17 runs. India reached 223 all out off 46.3 overs. Bowling for New Zealand, Tim Southee scalped 4/49 off ten overs and offspinner Nathan McCullum took 3/35 off his allotment.


New Zealand struggled from the start of their innings. Guptill, Watling, Taylor and Styris were all back in the pavilion with the total on 22. Praveen Kumar's medium pace bowling destroyed the New Zealand top order. Things got even worse for the Kiwis when the score reached 41/4. The Indians reduced them to 53/8. Munaf Patel's three wickets was chiefly responsible for the mid-innings destruction of the Kiwi run chase.


Only a combative half-century from number nine batsman Kyle Mills spared the Kiwis' blushes. Mills scored 52 runs from just 35 balls as New Zealand struggled to 118 all out. Mills was the last batsman out, as New Zealand lost by a whopping 105 runs. Bowling for India, Praveen Kumar and Munaf Patel took three wickets each. Virender Sehwag was the player of the match for his century that propelled India to their match-winning total.



Match Summary (India Won by 105 Runs)
India– 223/10 in 46.3 Overs
V.Sehwag- 110 M.S.Dhoni– 38
T.Southee- 10-2-49-4 N.McCullum– 10-0-35-3
New Zealand– 118/10 in 30.1 Overs
K.Mills- 52 K.Willimason– 13
M.Patel- 7-1-21-3 P.Kumar– 8-2-34-3
