India vs Sri Lanka

The keeping protected champions didn't make it, the mercurial outsiders staggered, the powerful competitor choked, the Ashes victors ran out of gas, and after six weeks of high drama, we have arrive to this: the first all-Asian World-Cup final. And they warrant to be there: five of the peak six run-getters, two out of peak five wicket-takers, the fielder with the most catches and the wicketkeeper with the most dismissals will all be on show. The two groups have rallied round two of the best modern-day captains: MS Dhoni and Kumar Sangakkara.

Sangakkara is a furiously determined man. Arjuna Ranatunga was nearly the flexibility combatant, infusing self-respect and clarifying the colonial hangover, Mahela Jayawardene was the astute head individual who conveyed so much tactical nous and cricketing understanding, and Sangakkara is seeking to add ruthlessness. Ranatunga shoved the young men to become men, Jayawardene made the men self-aware, and Sangakkara is seeking to turn them ruthless. The evolutionary excursion has made a World Cup triumph, a runners-up complete and now, a possibility to win it for the second time.

MS Dhoni is a calmly determined man. Sourav Ganguly was fervent, Rahul Dravid was method propelled, Anil Kumble directed from the front with his grit, while Dhoni has been an intuitive captain. He is level-headed, and shrewd sufficient to wed passion and process. He has soaked up the force of being India's head individual, is intelligent sufficient to understand the worth of his own emblem, and holds his star-heavy group revolving easily with the help of Gary Kirsten. India's preceding two triumphs, contrary to Australia and Pakistan, have ironed out numerous of the flaws glimpsed previous in the tournament. However, those two wins furthermore lift the inquiry of India being strongly sensed drained. Do they have fuel left in them to lift their game one last time?


The batsmen, who had possibly endeavoured too hard to reimburse for the somewhat feeble bowling strike by seeking to manage too much in the end overs and disintegrated in the batting Powerplay, appear more cognizant of recognising a viable target. Someone or other has taken ascribe throughout tricky chases. Yuvraj Singh displayed tenacity in the follow contrary to Australia, and Suresh Raina maturity in his shot assortment contrary to Pakistan.

In the last two years, Sri Lanka and India have won eight sport apiece contrary to each other. In the last year, the record stands 4-3 in Sri Lanka's favour. In their last five comes across in India, though, the record stands 3-1, with one no outcome, in the dwelling side's favour. However, these two groups have performed each other so often - tomorrow's last will be the 30th time since July 2008- that they should understand everything there is to understand about each other.
