INDIANCRICKET UNBELIEVABLE
MS Dhoni now has won the award for collecting the maximum number of catches and stumpings in an Asia Cup Final. He has taken 4 catches and one stumping, which is a record for an Asia Cup.
This is an Indian side which did not have Sachin, Yuvi and Sehwag. So this win is all the more praiseworthy. India have won the Asia Cup for the 5th time after a gap of 15 years. Imagine this Indian side when the above mentioned players come back into the side. SL on the other hand have been simply blown by the late swing of Zak, PK and the ever smiling Nehra.
Dhoni and Co. are all smiles as they grab stumps as souvenirs. India will get USD 60,000 for winning the Asia Cup. Gary Kirsten too is smiling as he comes out to congratulate the Indians and console the Lankans. Sanga wears a disappointed look on his face as he comes out to shake the Indian players hands.
India got the start that they needed with the wicket of Dilshan initially. Sri Lanka needed atleast one of their two big guns, Sanga and Jaya, to fire and play a big one. Unfortunately for the Lankans, their most reliable men failed to step up to the occasion. The middle order was rattled by Nehra and the Sri Lankans never made a comeback into the game after that. Kapugedera came up with a fifty lower down the order but it was all too late by then. Wickets kept tumbling at the other end as Indians inched closer and closer to a win in the finals of the Asia Cup. One has to say, it was that kind of a game that the bowlers had to win it for India and Boy! Didn't they do it in a stylish way? Massive win as India win by 81 runs. Stay tuned for the presentation..
