India Wickets 5th ODI Indi  v Sri Lanka Canberra 2008

Indian cricket comes good when it matters most – the ODI against New Zealand in the tri-Nation ODI series underway in Sri Lanka was no exception. It was touted as a life-and-death match and Virendra Sehwag led the way with his murderous assault of a century in just 87 balls. His innings paved the way for India to post a fighting total of 223. And – given the playing under lights, it throttled the Kiwi batsmen. In the earlier match, India had been skittled out by the same Kiwi team for a miserable 88 – it was now payback time for India. New Zealand could manage only 118 runs against Indian’s 223. India will now meet Sri Lanka for the finals on 28th August.
