Checked in earlier and thought India was on course for 200+

They must've played pretty poorly over the last 8-9 overs to "only" score 163

I think India needs a really good over with just 2-3 runs and preferably a wicket. Otherwise 143 should be fairly straightforward. Anyway it looks like SL has given up on the win which means West Indies will only have to beat Australia to move ahead.

India toast then. No way SL aren't scoring 144 from here.

Actual outcome of the game finely poised tho. Backing India to defend it, actually.

I guess we can always rely on Nehra to bowl crap under pressure. It's depressing that this clown is probably going to continue right till the World Cup. Looks like game over for India as far as 144 is concerned.

What on earth are the commentators going on about? It's been clear for some time that SL is going for 144 and not the win.

Cant see why people are surprised with Nehra

The guy is one of the worst regular internationals I've ever seen from a major cricketing nation who are doing pretty well in all formats - cant bat, totally incompetent in the field and horribly inconsistent in the only discipline that he is reasonably adapt in

Should've been discarded about 5 years ago IMO

Yeah & what's Ravi been drinking? Get "164 or at least get close to it?" Any score between 144-162 makes SFA difference to SL as Windies run rate is already worse than theirs.

Those two sixes give Sri Lanka a decent chance of winning though especially since India will be going through the motions.
