Sri Lanka 320/4 (50 ov)
so 321 is the target for india
*
Breathless stuff in that innings. The over-rate was good, the run-rate was better. The bowling was atrocious. For those of you still wondering, India need 321 runs in 240 balls to stay alive in this tournament.*

We got these comments on cricinfo when 35th over was in progress :eek: :hayaa:
[TABLE=“class: commsTable”]
34.2
Yadav to Sangakkara, 1 run, Sanga is out of his crease again, a full length ball wide of off stump squeezed into the covers for one.
“Now tell me , in how many overs India has to chase 320 to get bonus point,” asks Aman. 40 overs, irrespective of whether SL are all out for 169, or rack up 953 for 6. A change of bat for Sanga. Brings out the Hattori Hanzo now. Expect more violence.
34.3
Yadav to Dilshan, 1 run, yet again, Umesh beats Dilshan's bat with a straight pacy ball that is inside edged onto the pad and to the off side.
and in the end 320/5 :eek:

Sehwag to face. Malinga will bowl the first over. India face a very tough ask. One wide slip, third man and fine leg are at the fence
One of the floodlight towers at the Bellerive has gone off, so we have a delayed start to the chase. All sorted out now, Sri Lanka's fielders are out there.

End of over 2 (9 runs) India 14/0 (307 runs required from 48 overs, RR: 7.00, RRR: 6.39) [TABLE]

V Sehwag
7* (5b 1x4)
SL Malinga
1-0-5-0

Kulasekara to Tendulkar, FOUR, Nearly a chance. Short of a length, outside off, past the diving MJ at short cover-point. Would have been a screamer had he pulled it off

[TABLE="class: commsTable"]
4.6
Malinga to Sehwag, SIX
4.5
Malinga to Sehwag, FOUR
4.4
Malinga to Tendulkar, 1 run, full-pitched again, wider outside off. Tendulkar moves across and opens the face to steer ot behind point for one.
Four men in the point-cover cordon.
4.3
Malinga to Tendulkar, FOUR, smashed. Tendulkar is off to a rousing start here, uninhibited strokeplay is the way to go. Over-pitched wide of off stump, Tendulkar was hanging back in the crease to get under it, he didn't have to. This was in the slot and he blasted it through the covers.

Australia have lost their last two games against Sri lanka and hammered India all summer, barring one T20 and one ODI. No doubts about who they want to play in the finals. If India complete this incredible magic show, Australia will then want to beat Sri Lanka on Friday. Won’t be easy.
