INDIA VS SRI LANKA FINAL preview

WELL so many times this has happened that INDIA SRI LANKA have faced each other in last 3 years we have played 43 ODI'S and people say we want ODI'; to survive you cant let viewers get bored by showing them same matches all over though boards will never complainn coz of the revenue they generate everything said and done we do need fewer matches with lanka atleast .Coming back to final between its almost slipping out of hands for youngsters like VIRAT SHARMA AND DK to keep their form in big final pressure is more and when ur in final coz one man army its doubled conditions might be tough but this is were the metal of a player is identified. RANDIV-VIRU controversy just hads spice to an even contest .Both teams would like to bat first on new pitch which has shown signs of being more adaptive for stroke players which is just what young indian brigade might need to survive. SRI LANKA will feel lot better since their  line up is more settled than indias and worry for india has been jadeja who cant bat gives 6's at will so we might just see ROHIT SHARMA  for him in the final which will mean same 4pacers and few overs 4m viru,raina,yuvi.
Over al its going to be good match to watch on saturday given new pitch and similar conditions we are in for a  cracker of game.

INDIA VS NEW ZEALAND 25aug

EVERYTIME MS DHONI LOST THE TOSS THERE WAS A QUESTION WHERE HAS MSD'S CHARM GONE ,Finally he got it right once but sadly the team got it wrong it was a forgettable day when nothing went right except the toss.Even today when dhoni won the toss and elected to bat dinesh n virat shiwed him scary signs but when raina got out and india at 66/4 in 12.3 overs .dhoni might be wondering whether he should come for toss.Yes these are youngsters but they have to be perssisted with since you cant have experince by seating on benches so indian young brigade is under fire and what a time to score a century for viru.Viru ws magnificant through his extra cover drives and gr8 placements he was terific dhoni payed 2nd foil and they together fought out everything and eventually viru as usual raced to his 100 but as luck had him he holed out at midwicket springing collapse dhoni follwed him making valuable 38 jadeja chipped in with 17 and some lower order resistance and blows got india to 223 after being 66/4 india  might take it anyday given the conditions present for the batsmen under lights so new zealand and india both have equal chance to make it to final of the tri series
