India Lost Another Final, Srilanka Won Tri Series
While India lost to Sri Lanka Today in Sri Lanka Triangular Series, Final, at at Dambulla Lossing capton Dhoni said: ” “…We just didn’t spend enough time in the middle. If we had wickets .. Credit goes to Sri Lanka. They batted and bowled well. Our bowlers gave them a bit of width and that’s one thing you don’t want to give Dilshan. He smashed us all around the park. The team that plays the best cricket on that particular day deserve to win. It was a good learning curve for the young batsmen in our side. Usually we don’t get these sort of conditions.”
India were chasing 299 and get all out at 225. Last wicket to fall was MS Dhoni. Earlier in the day Srilanka made 299 with the help of Dilshan’s one of the top made hundred. He was Man Of the match and said at presentation “The last three innings I got a start but didn’t capitalize. I thought today I should do it. We have lost the last three finals here against India. Everyone came and performed well today.”
Virender Sehwag was declared man of the series and also most admirable player of the series and wins a car.
Sri Lankan Skipper Sangakkara also chipped in with few good runs He said: “It was a good toss to win. The way the openers batted – we talked a lot about getting through the first 10 overs. Mahela and Dilshan started well and Dilshan continued to bat really well. Perera lengthens our batting but his bowling has been very impressive in the last couple of games. Champaka Ramanayake has to take a lot of credit; he has done a great job with the fast bowlers. The discipline in line and length has been the real key for us.”
India still looking for some good Final wins in Sri Lanka. And it could be said that it was loss of new faces in India.
