SRI LANKA 251/4 50.0 overs
INDIA 159 40.2 overs
Sri Lanka won by 92 runs
Man of the match: DNT Zoysa
Daily Blast Comment: Very poor showing by the Indians as they depart empty handed. Overall a horrible trip for them and poor batting was largely to blame on seam friendly wickets. In this one, Atapattu made what seemed a crazy decision at the toss, but it paid off nicely in the end.

"Smash Moments" Highlight Package
brought to you by the CW Smash Bar
*SRI LANKA innings*
3.3 Broadbent to Jayasuriya, OUT, What a brilliant catch by Eclipse in the gully!
ST Jayasuriya 5 (11b 1X4)
c. Eclipse b. Broadbent
Jayasuriya drove hard at that full delivery and the ball flew off the edge to the left of Eclipse, who took a great catch!
---
5.6 Broadbent to Gunaw'dene, OUT, Marc71178 takes an easy catch to dismiss DA Gunawardene
DA Gunawardene 1 (6b)
c. Marc71178 b. Broadbent
Gunawardene fishing at a good delivery angling across him. Broadbent looking very sharp on debut!
---
26.4 Pickup to Atapattu, one run, That is very well run by KC Sangakkara
The crowd cheers for MS Atapattu's fifty
That's a very crucial innings for Sri Lanka in this game as well as considering the upcoming finals. Well-played by the captain.
---
28.4 Pickup to Sangakkara, one run, That is very well run by MS Atapattu
Fifty for KC Sangakkara
These two really running extremely well between the wickets. A fine innings by this classy left-hander.
---
33.1 Broadbent to Sangakkara, OUT, That didnt look so convincing but the umpire has no doubt, out LBW
KC Sangakkara 54 (89b 3X4 1X6)
lbw b. Broadbent
Replays show it pitched a good inch outside legstump, but Broadbent get's his 3rd wicket regardless and Sangakkara has to go. Big break there.
---
36.5 Mxyzptlk to Atapattu, OUT, What a brilliant catch by Lord of Darkness at deep square leg!
MS Atapattu 76 (109b 8X4 1X6)
c. Darkness b. Mxyzptlk
That was short and Atapattu looked to deposit it over the ropes, but Darkness ran around very quickly from long leg and jumped up to take the catch at full stretch. He hit the landing superbly. That's surely the catch of the series!
---
41.5 Pickup to Jayantha, OUT, That didnt look so convincing but the umpire has no doubt, out LBW
WS Jayantha 5 (14b)
lbw b. Pickup
The height was the problem there. That was going over the top by at least half an inch.
---
*CW XI innings*
0.1 Maharoof to Cloete, FOUR, That was a bad delivery by MF Maharoof, deserving this punishment
Great start!
---
3.2 Vaas to Cloete, FOUR, Brilliant cover drive by Cloete
---
3.6 Vaas to Bugssy, SIX, ???!!! Its coming towards the commentary box Im leaving!!!
---
4.1 Maharoof to Cloete, SIX, Display of Raw power and brutality by Cloete. That was lofted straight down the ground off a good length! Unbelievable shot!
---
5.3 Zoysa to Bugssy, SIX, ???!!! Pitched on leg' and flicked over the ropes with incredible ease!
---
7.1 Maharoof to Cloete, FOUR, Cut away like a bullet from a gun!!!
7.2 Maharoof to Cloete, no run, Cloete was completely deceived by a great slower one
7.3 Maharoof to Cloete, no run, The umpire turns down that ridiculous appeal from KC Sangakkara
7.4 Maharoof to Cloete, FOUR, MF Maharoof cant belive it - that was inside-edged past legstump and off to the ropes
7.5 Maharoof to Cloete, FOUR, Cut shot again! Too inconsistent from Maharoof here...
7.6 Maharoof to Cloete, two runs, Great running between the wickets 2 more
End of over 8 (14 runs)
CRICKET WEB XI 67/0
---
The young legspinner has bowled very well in this series so far and he'll look for more success here. It's a gamble to bring him on at this stage - 71/0 after 9 - but Atapattu needs to make something happen. Here he is...
9.1 Lokua'hchi to Cloete, OUT, Unbelievable catch by DA Gunawardene!!!
Cloete 46 (36b 6X4 1X6)
c. Gunaw'dene b. Lokua'hchi
We may have a new catch of the series! Gunawardene is in at a short extra cover position and that was hit hard and to his left, but he took a wonderful one-handed reaction catch! Terrific!
---
11.4 Maharoof to Bugssy, one run, Dropped! Sangakkara made a big mess of that simple chance
---
11.5 Maharoof to Eclipse, OUT, That ball caught the edge and struck the stumps. Eclipse cant belive it
Eclipse 9 (12b 1X4)
b. Maharoof
Poor footwork there and Eclipse continues to struggle in this series. He looks really far out of it at the moment...
---
22.6 Jayasuriya to Bugssy, FOUR, Swept confidently with great placement
The crowd cheers for Bugssy's fifty from 54 balls. That's the 7th of his ODI career and he's placed the CW XI in a commanding position here.
---
23.4 Chandana to Bugssy, OUT, Brilliantly stumped by KC Sangakkara
Bugssy 50 (55b 4X4 2X6)
st Sangakkara b. Chandana
Could that be the turning point in this match? Bugssy drove at that Chandana delivery and lost his top hand. The ball spliced off the edge and was somehow caught by Sangakkara in his right glove.
---
33.4 Zoysa to Marc71178, OUT, Bowled him! Great delivery by Zoysa. Marc71178 didnt have a clue
Marc71178 14 (28b 2X4)
b. Zoysa
Played down the wrong line there and lost his offstump for it. Sri Lanka scraping back into it...
---
36.1 Jayasuriya to Blewy, OUT, That ball caught the edge and struck the stumps. Blewy cant belive it
Blewy 52 (79b 3X4)
b. Jayasuriya
Another one's dragged on! That's a HUGE wicket!!! Blewy looks shot right now. He's extremely disappointed with that shot. It was far too close to cut. Sri Lanka will now fell their in with a slim chance... 182/5
---
38.1 Vaas to Chaulk, OUT, MS Atapattu takes an easy catch to dismiss Ash Chaulk
Ash Chaulk 6 (16b)
c. Atapattu b. Vaas
That's a loose shot! Now Sri Lanka's well and truly back in it. It's 185/6!
---
38.6 Vaas to Darkness, one run, Dropped! Sangakkara floored that tought chance
What a delivery! Great angle across Darkness and it straightened late to take the outside edge, but Sangakkara couldn't stick the landing.
---
42.4 Vaas to Mxyzptlk, OUT, Big appeal behind the stumps, umpire gives Mr Mxyzptlk the finger
Mr Mxyzptlk 3 (16b)
c. Sangakkara b. Vaas
Ooooh... Mr Mxyzptlk may have been harshly treated there. Ultra motion seems to indicate that the ball missed the bat, but he's been given and has to go. CW continues to implode this evening...
---
46.1 Zoysa to Timewell, OUT, Thats plumb in front of the wicket
Rob Timewell 8 (11b 1X4)
lbw b. Zoysa
Well it wasn't going to take very long. Zoysa hit a fullish length and got the ball to straighten. The batsman missed - the bowler hit. Sri Lanka need just 2 more now... 208/8...
---
46.3 Zoysa to Broadbent, OUT, That ball caught the edge and struck the stumps. Broadbent cant belive it, out for a duck
Chris Broadbent 0 (2b)
b. Zoysa
Another one!!! Duck on debut for Broadbent! That's a similar dismissal to Marc's, except this ball was a bit fuller. Now Sri Lanka take the lead, needing 1 wicket with Pickup on strike. The CW XI still needs 11 runs to win...
46.4 Zoysa to Pickup, one run, That is very well run by Lord of Darkness
He wants the strike for the last 2 balls. He'll try to get a single off the last ball...
46.5 Zoysa to Darkness, no run, Hit on the pad! Loud shout, but it was swinging down the legside - NOT OUT
46.6 Zoysa to Darkness, no run, Past the outside edge! Darkness looked to run that one to 3rd man, but it was too close to him and zipped over the top of his bat. Crucial over there!
---
48.1 Vaas to Darkness, OUT, Thick edge well taken by Sangakkara
Lord of Darkness 11 (32b)
c. Sangakkara b. Vaas
Well Darkness had to go for some shots soon because Pickup was never going to hang around. Unfortunately he picked the wrong ball to attack and paid the ultimate penalty.
Game over.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Daily Blast Comment: The CW XI's 5-game ODI winning streak comes to an end. They've still won 10 of 12 games and will surely enter the finals as favourites. Sri Lanka take some important confidence into the final matchup though and it should make for some excellent cricket.
