India Thrashed Sri Lanka by 7 Wickets

In a interesting match on Tuesday 28th February, India thrashed Sri Lanka by 7 wickets and with a bonus point and put the world on guessing that who will play the final.   In a do-or-die match here in Hobart all Indian batsmen come in a good form and played aggressively to finish with a bonus point.  


Kohli was the anchor of the innings and he made an unbeaten 133 of  just 86 balls.  Earlier Sri Lanka made 320 runs in 50 overs putting India in pressure, but India decided to charge from the beginning and both openers give a good plat form to the rest by putting a good run rate.  Sehwag made a thrashing 30 in just 16 balls followed by Sachin 39 in 30 balls.

India can't do anything now, but just to wait and watch the Aus-Sri match.   Sri Lanka is in a good form through the series and it will be a tough task for Aus to beat them.  India's fortune is in Australia's hand.
