India beats Srilanka in Compaq cup final.
-----------------------------------------
India 319 for 5 (Tendulkar 138, Yuvraj 56*, Dhoni 56) beat Sri Lanka 273 (Kandamby 66, Harbhajan 5-57) by 46 runs
Time and again Tendulkar critics have said that he is not a match winner. Tendulkar's classy innings should have shut the critics mouths for now. He is becoming more valuable with age as a vintage wine.
Harbhajan's bowling was another reason for India's success along with commendable performances from Yuvi and Raina.
But Indian bowling lacks the penetration and the poor fielding does not bode well for a team which is aspiring to be the number 1 in ODIs. Srilanka was able to put up a fight only for these two reasons.
.
Anyway , congrats Team India!
Fans from all over the world must have enjoyed the match on TV and live streaming links and on cricinfo.com , ESPN and cricinfo.tv . Cricket video highlights are also posted on sites including cricinfo.tv
