India vs Sri Lanka, 5th Match at Harare, Jun 05 2010 - Match Result

that's it, short ball, pulled away for four, and SL join Zimbabwe in the final. Well done, both of them, and India, as a reader said, are Out of Africa. Well not quite, they have to wait for this to finish and then play two T20s against Zimbabwe, regarding which Praveen Kumar writes in, "T20 should be interesting battle between India and Zimbabwe. Who knows INDIA can shock them with a win afterall its a T20.."

length ball, worked away into the leg side, they run two but it is called one short

makes room and drives, but can't beat extra cover

full ball, hit to midwicket straight

short, over the stumps, makes room and upper-cuts it over point, within one hit of the final

offcutter, worked away off the pads for one

back of a length, hit straight to midwicket

slower ball, worked into the on side for one

high full toss, edged away to third man - called no-ball for height

another drive square of the wicket, this time the point fielder gets a hand to it

yorker, on leg stump, works it into the on side for one

looks for the shot over short fine again, gets a slower ball, which he works much squarer for one

lovely shot, anticipates a yorker, makes room, gets an overpitched delivery, and drives it square, over point and square of third man

looking to scoop it, but it is too wide of off, looks to open the face on it but hits straight to point

charges at him even before he bowls, Dinda bowls short, and he pulls it for one

length ball on the pads, worked past midwicket

fired across him, he opens the face of the bat but but the ball goes straight to short third

they steal a single to short third despite a direct hit from Ashwin

shot! goes across on a knee, and sweeps this quick delivery over short fine leg

mis-hit as he is hurried into this as he jumps down the track, and it falls just short of a charging-in Vijay from long-off
