2009 Compaq Cup Final India vs Srilanka

he's in but he's not opening the batting it's raul travis along with sachin tendulkar who will be opening the batting for india only the seventh time that they this pier have walked out at the top of the innings and won the internationals [Applause] rojo drive it opening the batting because of those sort of strokes and i reckon bish that's the tactic that's the strategy more time at the crease 50 overs he can take his time but he could also have the ball coming on nicely whether it's front foot or back foot he's so adept look at that he went onto the front foot it's a little bit short of a length and he just rocked back and he could use the pace of the ball [Applause] he's often running straight away and uh the old boy jason has to stretch the hamstrings oh he just manages to stop it fresh pitch and already we've seen a little bit of sea movement but also seeing the ball coming on to the battle reasonably well we've got to applaud the move too here prima dasa it's the fresh one for the final besides the thread one here and i was just about to say that is the difference when you have someone like verinda sayweg in your side segway can produce strokes like that and often goes for it and creates his own room when a bowler has been this consistent here's the change of pace that the ambition was on about you could see it was the off cutter the slower ball the off spinner goes for a short one he's going to disappear magic through midwicket beautiful it's the ability to transfer the weight you can see the left leg of driving initially come forward it's brought a smile to kirsten's face and then the weight goes back and he gets on top of it rolls the wrists nicely oh brilliant million technician [Applause] talk about timing don't bother moving and he doesn't there is tendoca's second boundary smooth as silk have a look at this any young kid at home look at this look at the lines the downswing of the back the foot movement that is what i love about tendulkar such straight lines in his batting oh great shot wonderful back foot drive through the offside field oh i never look at this shot up on his toes so that's uh classical tenduka oh that's well played it's into the gap and that'll be for so tenduka continues to pepper the offside boundary that area has been a favorite area of his it's quite interesting too because of the round arm action out there of malinga and the batsman down there asking the umpire to take his hat off [Applause] giving us lobster room he's gone up in the air there is a filter certainly underneath and it doesn't matter of course you're gonna trot back for two runs it brings up saturn's 50 as well off 47 balls so his strike rate is 106.4 brilliant stuff from him at this stage he will know will certain tender he will know that he's far from finished he's got a very good record in finals his 90 second one international 50. there's that wrong and he's picked that beautifully there is a man down there has it over the top oh it's going oh hang on a sec that's gone that's gone for six clever clever thinking but it has gone for six in the end very very close there for rojo drive but he picked the wrong one and almost got caught yes substituting got himself nicely under it but again the momentum took him over [Applause] cries of catch that's soft very soft goodness me that'll uh be very devastating for india and driver in particular he's one of those guys who never ever ever gives it away you can see that he is very very annoyed himself understandably it's not the first time we've seen a soft dismissal in this tournament he's on his way now he's been riding his luck his rack has run out but he hasn't lost any of his guy although he didn't make as many runs throughout his bowling has been spot on and a cleverly disguised electric which had enough flight driving drives straight to the field at 39 india 95 for one henderson dhoni is the man coming at number three now that's uh a little bit unusual there's some shuffling going on with the indian uh batting lineup however he certainly doesn't mind betting it to number three look at that the average of 86.5 in that position so a little bowling change from uh kumar sangakkara bringing the 40 year old into the attack has worked beautifully [Applause] well that's not going to be a wicket that's for sure short and wide and it's been dealt with severely first boundary in 21 balls for mohanda singh tony yes that was quite easy very short very short and coming nicely onto the bat [Applause] oh lovely yeah premeditated and lovely runs away for yet another boundary and the 150 comes up with that little bit of def touch from dhoni again another master at work he's so good at playing shots like this and his dhoni and he's been a great support to sanchez in this part the ship is sachin tendulkar just neatly put away played so fine in fact giving no field any chance at all down the track and here is the fireworks let them begin well he quickly spotted that one which was up given down he came down the crack slammed it through the offside he gets it with his 90s magnificent display of batsmanship so there are no mysteries in mendys fort and dulcan and he gets a wide one nice little freebie from mendes allow sachin tendulkar to bring out century number 44 and wonder internationals great hundred this from the little master well it has been flawless and just look at everyone on his feet what an innings this has been a great example as to how one could accumulate runs at the same time keep everyone's interests going outstanding [Music] this wagon wheel well it'll be extraordinary look at it no surprises there down the ground through cover through the on side and lots of singles worked come here with the strategy the plan and just looking heavenward saying thanks [Music] [Applause] that's away and it's gone for four terrific shot let me correct that there's three men outside the circle it's a great way to start the batting power play because of the limitation of feelers and largely it's been taken by india because of the change of ball it's harder and also because they're two set batsmen at the crease that is influenced don't need to take it that is right out of the middle that is absolutely brilliant what a terrific shot that is raced away brings up the 50 as well for dhoni 55 balls only so these two guys have done a superb job and they've also just brought up the three figure stand 100 runs in just 104 balls outstanding no wonder he's smiling it's in the air it should be taken there's a field of camping underneath it come down it is taking that catch malinga has done some business here that is a huge weight of sri lanka it looked like he beat dirty for peace he wasn't that short either but because they're in the power play don is looking to to force it a little bit which you would do if you take the power play so the breakthrough is welcome but it's a good hand by dhoni coming in a little bit earlier today gone for 56 205 for two you've read sing next man in been sitting with the pads on for some time 27 years of age we know that he is devastating with the bat this man at times good strike rate averages tidy 1200's bit of a smile on his face as well plenty of time to camp underneath that one condominium oh it's in the air it's going down the ground it's going all the way it's a big six well that's what he does best he's one of the biggest hitters in world cricket yuvraj singh is about to turn it on this is amazing you know these guys it doesn't matter to them if there's a long on in position he's just going to hit and hit it out of the ground and very very early on into that shot that fielder knew he was nowhere in contention the follow through of the blade the extension of the arms is what's important oh yes down the wing he goes that's a wonderful shot way over the top of extra cover it's gone all the way for six so tendulkar has definitely got the message it's time to go really what a shot he's played a lot of these this time just making some space for himself brilliant how do you describe that exceptional just the perfect anticipation great positioning and it's gone backwards and it's gone over the top that's a uh reverse sweep i don't think he changed the grip on the bat well that's more like it no this is the worst best batsman at his best this is a reverse sweep this is not a switch hit but how well he executed that and the difference of course between a reverse suite and a switch hit is uh you don't change the grip on the back and there he goes again and once again it's got it passed him and once again it's going down to the boundary tendukkar is having a wonderful time i mean here's a classical batsman playing shots that you would never have believed that he would be attempting years ago this is his highest score against sri lanka what a time for that to come exceptional exceptional batting and he should be able to do this because you see right left-handed doesn't he so that must make it a little bit easier 15 off the other and he goes again and there's a big appeal for lbw and yes he's given him yes he's given him tendulkar going for a reverb sweep once again that brings to an end a superb innings a lot of people sri lankans and indians alike would have come to this ground today well even although they might have been hoping to see sri lanka win they would love to see sri lanka and tendulkar make runs i think that's out yes that was dead center sachin tendulkar what an innings masterly performance today 138 it's 276 for three and the new batsman yusuf won't be allowed to bataan around he's gonna have to go from the word go he's big and strong enough this is the wicked once again this was this time the ball was coming into tendulkar the previous two was the leg cutters leg brakes juveder's on 28 at a runner ball well that's a good delivery too and he's out well i think uh i think he hit down and the ball then hit the bat on the way up he doesn't want to go at the moment but while he did chop down i got the feeling the ball was on the way up it's just too far away from him there it is the hits down and yes he's gotta go that's very clear he got the bat under the ball this strategy of pulling it away from the batsman it seems to be working straight into the fielders there's a little knot uh nod of the head and so unfortunately for pathan he's out first ball [Applause] oh not if you play shots like that he won't one bounce over the extra cover boundary for four what a shot what timing i think he's gotten on to the fact that that's the strategy also the slower delivery he was in position brilliant inside out over the top nobody moved that was comprehensive absolute joy to watch so for the first time the run rate is over six now 285 for four that's a better delivery a little straight at that time it's still going down the third man son of jai surya fumbles down there they come back for two that's the length he should really endeavor to ball because he's very difficult to assess when he's bowling at that length this comes very low at you he was trying to play that on the on side boys pulled that away beautifully don't worry about chasing that again just a little bit short allows him to freeze arms up wonderful timing well in fact he over pitched it that was the problem and i thought that he might have dug that one in very hard to see that ball from up here i can tell you that look at look at the wrist work coming through that unbelievable immense power he's just waiting uh raj [Applause] that away in the direction of midwicket again that's the area he absolutely loves and this too would it make it no just uh drag back but they'll get three joy wagoner on the boundary down there managing to get a booty big over that's in the air this has gone miles up this will take some catching down she comes got him nicely taken could a sacred down there as cool as a cucumber that went miles up in the air well ryan i did try try to get under it it's never easy hitting one against that angle that's why they are attempting to bowl this angle but this is a tough one they're never easy when they go as high as that but that was exceptional technique in the catch as well so eight for rhino it's 302 for five virat kohli is the new batsman but he's at the non-striker's end yuvraj has the strike lost it away through the offside field for four again oh that's perfect placement they might need to revisit this strategy a bit getting far too predictable if raj was ready for that one full toss and he just sliced it away for four no chance for any fielder there oh interesting interesting well he got down on the knee that's his half century and he's done it in very unorthodox fashion he was going to take it away to the leg side it was on the off side and he flicked it over the top of son cha surya's head clever there's no third man there's no fine leg just look at that for a boundary to get your 50. stunning stuff by yuvraj and he loved that there it is he enjoyed that 50 and 39 balls mind you yes he's played very very well ideal player to come in after a good start and he's also been relatively sensible about it he didn't go berserk from the word go he's uh slowly built up the pace so one ball to go very well played you raj he's come back for the second he's got the last delivery to deal with 315 for five it's a mammoth total last ball of the innings smashed away through the offside field and all the way for four so magnificent finish 11 runs off the over 319 for five the total of the 50 overs india have done superbly and what a total that was 319 for five a terrific start between draven who's surprised by opening and also tendulkar but just focus on tentacle 138 133 balls ten fours and one six and that's his 44th wonder international hundred so that was just magnificent stuff him good stuff from dhoni as well and new road sing was in a hurry 56 off 41 balls and 50 overs that's a big total 319 for five so they're well set after a good start in particular if you look at the sri lankan bowlers well only a couple in the wickers column was tosharo picked up two he was expensive one to malinga he was expensive same with mendes son of did a very good job known as one for 43 was economical and matthew's just uh three overs and didn't have the penetration he had but cooler shaker also quite tidy didn't finish his ten overs which is quite is only about eight in the end so that's it sri lanka need 320 runs and they've got to go at over six runs per over okay time for a break when we come back we'll rejoin all the action [Music] here we go starts with a beauty a little bit of shape and they're trying to take out the old man at the non-strikers in ahsoka the silver's coming upstairs to check it yes hassan james would have backed up too far the indians seem to be quite excited about it quite disturbed and he's safe for relief i'm sure to all sri lankan supporters it's tight enough though range geez he's just got back really just as well he didn't have a big dinner just in the last stretch there jar syria made it big roar goes up [Applause] perhaps some of this because this just races away through cover dildshawn is underway with the first boundary of the innings imagine with dilshan in the farm he is [Applause] very limited that one just a little too much outside the obstacle chance punched it square of the wicket before absolute cracker [Applause] that's what the team needed and the crowd where's the bowler gonna go now not the right place buddy because this one's gone even quicker like a tracer to the fence he shakes his head oh they're loving at the crowd though [Applause] they certainly are loving it because sri lanka needs a good start like this once again you could see the wind it is smashed it over point don't need much it comes to blue shine [Applause] this time he gets the width and guess what it goes back to the fence through cover points three balls with width and three boundaries this is the third smashes it again all along the ground it's in great form delshan if sri lanka needs to get close he'll have to play beginnings [Applause] i love it there fetch that fellas in blue up and over this time it's the desired result because it's four more to dilshan it's fourth boundary the plan seems to be clear that uh chance going to go after the bowling and enjoying it so far sort of played intentionally over the infield getting over it hello he's in a hurry as dilshan tonight he's had all five boundaries so far he'll fetch it up to him and uh we'll have to fetch it from the boundary it's on the front foot and slams it through the offside in front of the wicket that's a good looking shot [Applause] it's just such great entertainment this full flay of the blade [Applause] on the walk and there you go oh you love it one day qriket at his best son of coming to the party some more this is a typical jazz surya shot bludgeoned it away pitched up and she goes over midwicket that's a full blooded shot oh he certainly is getting into a high gear well the thing too about it ranch is that it's the first ball it's quite cunning yeah yeah the bowler ain't gonna be happy oh yeah yeah you love this again what a talent and the 50 is up inside the seventh over brilliant 38 deliveries and we've got 51 here at primary this is turning out to be an absolute beauty of an exhibition just look at that shot short and he picked it up so quickly wonderful hands so quick [Applause] there's the starfish i wonder when it was going to turn up tonight brilliant from dilcia but they have been waiting for this and he's delivered he's shown that he's been doing it so consistently it's not a fluke quite intentional oh great event tremendous practice what an entertainer there's an edge a good cultured edge pass vacant slip that's all you can do ashy snare have a roof will smile on your face another boundary dilshan's eight here's those glam faces for seed all india seems to be losing control in this initial overs well it's just great betting short and wide and hammered away in front of square on the offside and that's another boundary well that's what he was waiting for he was just hoping that he'd pitch slightly short and slightly outside the off stump oh he's got him harper's unseen has done the damage they wanted that they wanted that band you can see from that reaction from harvesting and his teammates they know they needed to get to the correctness ocean that got him big one big one for her searching for the death down to third man for that tragic tree the lower trajectory played the tragic tree not the lanes would have been better off on the front foot he just misjudged the length of knows he's got a big one he wanted that badly india needed it as well but dilshan threatened once again but brilliant forty two sixty four for one [Music] marilla joe wardner 32 years of age hasn't fired so far in the compact cup overall average is uh tidy at over 32 very very fine play we know that got a magnificent century against pakistan not that long ago in dambulla he'll need to do the same tonight if they're to get close i was just beaten by that flatter tragic tree there he goes to the back foot he needn't have been on the back foot i thought he was trying to run it down the third man he wanted to use the pace of that delivery but take a look at that for relation over the top of the bowler and another boundary quite a good shot that is that is terrific stuff now that's the problem you're boiling to a left and right hand combination you've got your fielders the deep fielders on the on side you can't afford to be bowling well fished up on the off stop that's easy that's what he was waiting for gone got involved again he's delighted he's screaming with joy out there in the middle so harbison has come in he's done the business twice now that's worked for him it hasn't turned and uh jay wardener has been turning it on to the onside getting a bit of a leading edge or at least the douchera that's the scrambled seam he didn't read it played it on to the onside and har bhajan it was in the way absolutely brilliant brilliant brilliant that's animation that's animated actually 76 for about 10 minutes ago it was 64 for no loss and dawson went and then joe wardner kumar kara has at the crease now and he's got enormous responsibility here in this situation with two quick ones harvard john singer is the man that's done the damage and have a look at these reactions over the top he said a long way up in the year there's again no problems no dramas there for uh some of the giants another boundary for him that's his seventh [Applause] in the air and i think it's gone straight up in the air there's a filter certainly underneath it is he going to take the catch yes he does nara is the man that's taking the catch the spell of races begin again they again know how important that worker was and the crown has gone deathly silent well there's a lot of pins up emotion there this is a big wicket jesuria departs just didn't reach it a little lethargic but well taken and he was under it for a while there's a lot of relief writ large on that face but well bold bataan the spinners are doing it for india he's gone for 36 it's 85 for three now [Music] so there's a little bit of a shuffle in the batting order here i would imagine there's only one reason why uh tushar has come out to battle that's to uh bat with a bit of a license didn't quite reach it i think he didn't even go ahead with the entire stroke there goes the sweep shot again and it's very well placed 45 degrees there's no one down there and it's gone whistling away all the way along the ground before a classic sweep shot from tishaira he picked it early that it was wide outside leg stump you can see the ball very wide outside leg stump obviously had it in the back of his mind where those two fielders were volume clean volume that hit middle stump well if you pitch it up and you bowl straight and the batsman are gonna play across the line the chances are that you're gonna get some wickets and that's exactly what ichan sharma was hoping for and has got yes result achieved captains brought him in to get rid of sushara he goes with a pinch big swing first ball and all it has done is it does hit right on the middle stump success for sharma and he has a few things to say as well goes he goes for 15 and sri lanka now 108 for four well there he is angelo matthews uh the hero of the last match between these two sides but on that occasion was with the ball best of 52 not out this is the first ball after a drinks break not really an appropriate shot to a ball like that oh i tell you what he's hit that beautifully straight down the ground way over the top and all the way for six well what a way to get off the mark straight down the ground for six take that 114 for four it's down the wiggity win and that went for six wet the distance went high up in the air as well just two little steps to get close enough fantastic that's what played very well played got it away nice and fine and it's got all the way to the boundary for four you just need to get a decent bit of bat on the ball there he's got him he's headed straight to short extra cover oh well reiner takes the catch and as i said has a bit of a reputation of being a strangler that wasn't really a great delivery it was a bit of a loose shot by angelo matthews and uh it's gone straight to short extra cover another bowling change uh has given results to the indian captain straight to the field matthew's trying to hit it on the up not really coming on to it and he goes for 14 sri lanka now 131 for five and we know that uh he's a bit of a powerhouse the great innings in the last match mid 91 not out really accelerated towards the end of the innings played some good strokes right round uh the grounds you can see it's nicely put away there'll be runs here will it go through yes it did great placement and that really has been done by strength it's a great time on the ball the first boundary after a long time for sri lanka [Applause] that boundary just keeps sri lanka managing the reef required nice nice absolutely sure can that be played one of those when he scored that brilliant 91 two nights ago right here at the prima dasa this one much more controlled and yeah a little concern on the face of the indians right now wonderful shot happy sing oh there he goes he's gone he can't believe it that's gone and there's a bit of celebration and a tackle out in the center the bats come out of the hand and he's gonna have to go he thought about the height factor but he's can't believe he has to go the captain now this is weird i've never seen anything like this he was waiting to see if he got a reprieve was that a no ball was that no ball on height but he's walking it wasn't it was well below the waist now the bat comes out of the hand and it goes and hits it falls on the stumps now that's quite unbelievable very disappointing 33 for him it is heartbreaking 182 for 6. [Music] is the new man he's uh fashioning a little bit of a record there 66 matches he's standing over his crease and there goes the blade it's sweaty and humid here and slippery incredible of course that's one way of getting a wicket he's gone over the top and that is a big hit may have traveled the distance no one bounce and out of the ground and see as well yuvraj gave us a bit of tap earlier on in the day time to give some back just about a maximum nice bottom hand and didn't try and overhit it just punched it just short of six short again as a straight up and this should be all over and oh no he's dropped it oh can you believe it it was a sitter for bataan and he shouted listen to the crowd goodness me look at those expressions this would have been all over for sri lanka [Applause] just trying to go hard at one which was just going across him and patan despite those dark glasses couldn't quite keep the glare away in the first place exactly cannot believe it oh spitting that's his off century that's very well played very controlled and sensible innings in the circumstances not easy with the pressure on like this and building yeah he's done a very very good job indeed he would have known that when sangakkara apart from the score in 182 that he really had to capitalise nice to see the senior players giving him a nice round of applause oh he's hit that one high that's gone bouncing away in fact one bounce for four that will relieve the pressure [Applause] takes his score to 20. they needed that there's a bit of a smile in the middle now that's the last thing that dhoni needed and i guess that sharma will be very disappointed with this delivery when he's been hit around in the series it's because he's bought short and wide outside the off stamp that was just setting up to be smacked and kappa gatorade took that opportunity oh that's well played that'll go for four the ship can't afford to bowl too straight but uh couple gathered up has played a lovely shot here and that was welcome only a couple of runs off the previous over they knew this one had to have at least one boundary so this situation after that boundary they've now got six off three balls [Applause] oh is that out is that out is it all yes sewish rainers on fire that just follows in the work of some outstanding work with the ball from this young man tonight but a wonderful hand from kapugera but it's come to an end yes disappointing at a time when sri lanka were going along quite nicely this is the last batting pair who made a 30-yard in the earlier game once again goes for 35 and sri lanka now 252 for seven wait on it which on it exactly as i talk about it with far too wide he'd been straight up until that point you cannot believe it if you're mahindra singh dhoni yes we saw on that pitch map the beehive where he had been punished for straying outside the off stamp [Music] could be the man to win the game for india tonight three key wickets even though he's gone for a few runs is he an intense personality or what and what valuable wickets he's got and it uh stretches when it's been so vital for india to get the breakthrough started with dilshan and now he's got kandambi giving himself room trying to hit onto the offside he missed it completely and knows that that was the biggest wicket of the evening gone for 66 sri lanka 264 for eight lassit malinga makes his way to the crease and he's either smiling for a good part of his journey to the middle man i don't know if it's a smile of stress but kandami goes making room because there was no one sweeping on the off side all the deep men were leg side and he knew how bizarre would start with outside leg stump so he backed away to try to punch it through the offside but haberjan picked up dilshan jayawardena and now can danby tonight three key wickets and you've was running away from him i would as well if he going to do that oh number four number four harvest and sing he will be on a hat-trick next ball but i think you have to believe he's wanted for india tonight he's been the standout you wouldn't know it from gary kirsten's face maliga came with a big smile on his face what did he do there just pushes that it tries to get it to lakeside leading edge and a dolly catch for hariba jan singh fourth wicket for him and india now almost home sri lanka have lost their ninth wicket with the score on 264. singh is on a hat trick only kapil devan chet and sharma have done it for india you know the eyes but there we go oh mercy yusuf bataan is having a nightmare in the field [Applause] he saved it now the empire wants to see it again but i'm sure he saved him absolutely certain yes he's having a horrible day today he'll certainly want to forget as his individual performance but if india does win then it'll be a game to remember so he's not given away the boundary three runs mendes goes for the reverse sweep he's uh tried a few strokes today he's been out there for eight deliveries that is end quite deservingly habershan singh gets a five wicket hall what a victory here for india in the final of this come back up they win by 46 runs victory in the final so there it is what a victory to india 270 schlinkl out for it got pretty tight at one stage around about the 42nd over it sort of fell apart for them but some good individual performance there from dulcian he was off like a rock at 42 off 29 balls and jsoria 36 as well then 33 from sankakura and a bizarre dismissal i'm not sure you'll ever see that again and kundumbi 66 played extremely well and he's certainly a find in that middle order and if we look at the indian ball as well they're all on the expensive side really if you go through that list harbhajan singh was the star though five for 56 off his uh two more shy of ten overs and uh the wickets were shared otherwise but the worry for india there is the expensiveness of the steam bowlers in particular okay so looking back to the much on me this is the compact cup final of course india won the task batter first a mass 300 and 19 for five tendulkar 138 and tashara picked up two sri lanka 273 didn't quite get there in the end 66 to kandambi and india won by 46 runs was a fitting final that's for sure and he was man of the series was saturn tendulkar and it really did absolutely perfect today as well and it really was quite special to watch that's it plenty of action hope you enjoyed it we'll see you next time bye-bye [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign me [Music] [Music] you
