Asia Cup 2010: India vs. Sri Lanka Match Preview‎ Live Scores

India:
India reached the final with a last over victory against Pakistan to follow-up their victory against Bangladesh in their opening match. However, the team hasn't been all that convincing thus far, and will need to improve in several departments if they are to challenge the Lankans in their own backyard. The seamers especially have not been able to find their rhythm and barring Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Suresh Raina and Gautam Gambhir, the batsmen haven't quite set the stage on fire either.

Srilanka:
The Lankans outplayed both Pakistan and Bangladesh and it took a mammoth effort from Shahid Afridi to take his team close to victory, but even his whirlwind century was not good enough. Five of their top six batsmen have got a half-century each in the tournament and that will make them feel extremely confident of their chances of going all the way. Sri Lanka have won both their matches batting first, and it won't be a surprise if they decide to bat under the lights on winning the toss just to get a feel of the conditions should they be required to in the final.
