1-1
India have squared the series with the final match on Saturday being a virtual final.
Positives for Lanka was Bandara's and Fernando's medicore performance with the ball; and the recovery by Dilshan and Arnold. Negatives - too many start and stops with wickets falling in bundles and the worrying collapses at the beginning.
Positives for India is that their fielding improved - overnight. Batting lived upto its expectations especially with Dhoni and Ganguly continuing their rich vein of form; Dravid too is back in the runs. And the man-of-the-match - Zaheer Khan has justified his comeback and selection into the World Cup squad with todays five. Agarka proved that he too could be frontline or a good replacement.
Where does this all lead to - a cracker on Saturday.
