India Vs Srilanka - Asia Cup 2008 Final

Today will be the real test of strengths of both India and Srilanka on the flattest surface of National Stadium Karachi.
This is a repeat of the asia cup 2004, where the same two team met in Srilanka and Srilanka won it easily. But this time around Dhoni’s men start as favourite after thrashing the same Srilankan team, but the two of their best bowlers Vaas and exciting Ajantha Mendis were rested for the Match. According to me the best bet for India would be to send Yuvraj Singh up the order may be at No.3 , so that he does not have to face Murlidharan and Ajantha Mendis once he starts his innings. Also the openers and inform Suresh Raina are important players.

Indian bowling looks thinner than Srilanka as their best bowler Ishant Sharma is not firing well, he needs to buck up and give the performance that he had given in Australia. Also Yusuf Pathan may get a game ahead of his younger brother Irfan as Irfan didnt had a good last game. Also being an offspinner and lot of Srilankans being left hander gives Yusuf Pathan an edge over Irfan.

I strongly believe that India will be winner, anyways my earlier prediction of Serena Williams winning the Womens Wimbledon final failed :( .

But Team India surely needs to win this, we need it Dhoni, All the Best have a blast and crush the Srilankans :D .
