Horrible start from Dilshan and suddenly India are firm favourites. No idea why people wrote them off.

Pretty dire last 7 or so overs from SL.

India should coast home if these two are there at the 30 over mark.
They could even afford to play out Murali and still be ahead of the rate.

Gambhir to do an Aravinder from 1996.

Gambhir so good against spin, just needs to be there and the rr will be ok.

SL's fielding has been comparatively poor it should be said.
