India march to the Final!!

Dravid does it for India this time while chasing

Indians have maintained their cool under pressure

Sehwag's innings made the difference

Astle's ton goes in vain

Everyone contributed with the bat for India except for Laxman

But it was SURELY Sehwag who made all the difference

India sending warning signals to Sri Lanka!

Jayasuriya and CO. should be hoping that India don't continue their run of consistency

Join us on Sunday 5th August for the final, Sri Lanka v India. India have beaten Sri Lanka twice so far. It definitely promises to be a cracker of a game, cliched as it may seem

Its a day/night game, starts at 0830 GMT (1430 Sri Lanka time). So Join us on CricInfo.com
