The law of averages is catching up with you now. You cannot be right this time.

Eddy, Sachin is not playing today ... Latest update.

India again wins the toss and again elects to bat.

Sachin, Zaheer rested. Rohit Sharma, I Phatan comes in to replace Sachin, Zaheer.

You are not getting that one back dude

So much for Sachin predictions, he is not even playing today

Makes it easier for you to predict that he wont score a single run today.

Ok, my MOM for today is V.Sehwag. Who is yours ?

I would still say he is in line for the MOM.

My MoM for today is either Dhoni or Gambhir(specially gambhir as i feel he will get a big one today)
Also this baffles me as Sachin has not scored in series(due to great decisions by umpires) why was he rested and not given a chance to make some runs?

On SL side i feel this can be Jaya's day!

You said it.. and he got it!

332/5, this sure is one high-flying Indian team. Never seen such consistency in my close to 20 years of following Indian Cricket.

Wonder how long it will last,though!
On a positive note,its really good to see the team come together and win a series so comphrensively. Way to go!

He was rested to give relief to SriLankan umpires perhaps!
