India vs Sri Lanka ICC World Cup Cricket Match 2007

Group B, Match 5, IND vs SL: Sri Lanka beat India by 69 runs

The Indians failed to chase a target of 255 runs set by the Sri Lankans which practically knocks them off the charts for the remainder of the World Cup. When it was most required, the famed Indian batting line-up failed to deliver and the entire team was bundled away for 185 runs.

Reported Earlier: Put into bat by Rahul Dravid, Sri Lanka made 254 runs against India in the Queens Park Oval. Highlight of the innings was a brilliant half century by Chamara Silva. It was Silvas fourth consecutive ODI fifty.
After a well crafted innings, Dilshan fell to Munaf Patel for 38 runs. Upul Tharanga who scored a patient 64 could not carry on as he was trapped LBW by Sachin Tendulkar. Sourav Ganguly got his first wicket of the World Cup when he dismissed Sangakkara for a score of 15. Ajit Agarkar got the wicket of Lankan skipper Jayawardene when he was caught by Dhoni for a paltry seven. Coming into bat Sri Lanka began on a cautious note but lost the wicket of Sanath Jayasuriya. The ace batsman was caught by Ajit Agarkar of the bowling of Zaheer Khan for a score of 6.

Reported Earlier: India captain Rahul Dravid won the toss and elected to field first in the crunch Group B game with Sri Lanka.
Both teams have made one change to their respective sides. Sri Lanka have rested Farveez Maharoof, who is carrying an ankle injury. Dilhara Fernando replaces him. Indians have left out leg spinner Anil Kumble and have brought back off spinner Harbhajan Singh.

India Cricket team : S Ganguly, R Uthappa, V Sehwag, S Tendulkar, R Dravid (c), Y Singh, M Dhoni (wk), A Agarkar, H Singh, Z Khan, M Patel
Sri Lanka team: U Tharanga, S Jayasuriya, M Jayawardene (c), K Sangakkara (wk), C Silva, T Dilshan, R Arnold, C Vaas, D Fernando, L Malinga, M Muralitharan

Group B, Match 5, Trinidad: Sri Lanka 254-6 beat India 185-10 by 69 runs

Group B, Match 5, IND vs SL: India-Sri Lanka critical match today

India faces Sri Lanka in a critical Group B match of the ICC World Cup at Port of Spain on Friday. They lost to Bangladesh, but registered a comprehensive victory over Bermuda while Sri Lanka has beaten both Bangladesh and Bermuda. Sri Lanka also has the best net run-rate of +4.594 in two matches. India with a win and a defeat has +2.507 from an equal number of matches. Bangladesh is third with a win and a loss and -2.002 in two matches. Sri Lanka has four points, while India and Bangladesh have two points each.
A victory over Sri Lanka could ensure India a Super Eight berth since Bangladesh is way behind in the net run-rate. India, theoretically, will not be eliminated even if it goes down to Sri Lanka.

If India fail to reach the Super Eights stage of the World Cup, analysts and businesses have already started to weigh up what the impact would be in the cricket-crazy nation. If India reach the Super Eights, 300 million viewers are expected to tune in for the matches. But if they go out, companies fear the numbers are likely to fall by 60 per cent.

India Cricket team (probable): Sourav Ganguly, Virender Sehwag, Irfan Pathan, Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid (capt), Yuvraj Singh, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (wk), Ajit Agarkar, Harbhajan Singh, Zaheer Khan, Munaf Patel
Sri Lanka team (probable): Upul Tharanga, Sanath Jayasuriya, Mahela Jayawardene (capt), Kumar Sangakkara (wk), Chamara Silva, Russel Arnold, Tillakaratne Dilshan, Chaminda Vaas, Farveez Maharoof, Muttiah Muralitharan, Lasith Malinga
