Virender Sehwag appeals unsuccessfully for the wicket of Kumar Sangakkara (not in picture) as Mahela Jayawardene (center) looks on in the Asia Cup match at the Rangiri International Stadium in Dambulla, on Sunday.

The 4 run win by India qualifying for the finals have provided the necessary momentum for India to go all out and win the tournament. What we saw yesterday was classic Indian style “coming right on top” by Indian players. India is a better team. They started horribly due to overconfidence but now they are war hardened and ready to any team in the world. 

It would have been a fun to watch the final between India and Pakistan. But Sri Lanka is also a formidable team and beating them in their home ground will be challenging and rewarding. 

Tendulkar will be the key with support from Captain Ganguli amd Sehwag. And do not forget Irfan. He will be a key player too!

The betting market all along has said India is the favorite. One day before betting market most of the time has predicted the right outcome.

Indian players are upbeat. Sri Lanka is also ready to take on India and score tons. All eyes are on the final.
