Indian Batting
India have fought back superbly here. A win seemed unlikely at 115 for 7 but the Pathan brothers had other ideas. Yusuf got things going, ensuring the spinners were taken off the attack after launching into Bandara. Dilshan resisted from bringing Jayasuriya back, but his fast bowlers, particularly Fernando, leaked way too many extras to allow India bring the game back in their favour.

Idea Cup, 2008; Sri Lanka vs India, 5th ODI Highlights; R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo, August 29, 2008 This has been an amazing tour which has witnessed some high quality cricket. After being trampled in the Test series, the Indians came back strongly with their young brigade putting up a brilliant show. It was the Mendis and Murali show in the Tests and surprisingly enough, they failed to perform in the one-dayers. Young India played them a lot better and hence the positive result. Mahendra Singh Dhoni led his side from the front with a few good knocks, Suresh Raina glittered with the bat and young Kohli showed a lot of promise about him as well. Zaheer Khan is back to his best too by performing like a real spearhead for his side. For the Sri Lankans, it was Kulasekara, Thushara, Mendis and the skipper himself who performed very well. Despite these efforts, it was India who walked away with the Idea Cup.
Result Sri Lanka won by 112 runs (D/L method)
Nuwan Kulasekara is the Man of the Match for his outstanding spell of 4 for 40 from 9 overs.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni is the Man of the series for his consistent run with the bat. He stacked up a brilliant 193 runs from the 5 games.
Idea Cup, 2008, Sri Lanka vs India, 4th ODI, Highlights R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo, August 26, 2008
What a clinical performance by the Indians, they would be a satisfied lot after what they all went through during the lost Test series and the horrendous first ODI. Mahendra Singh Dhoni has led his side to yet another win and he has once again done that with a resounding example. His team got off to a good start and he took up the charge alongwith Raina to ensure that their team got to a par total. It was always going to be one of those challenging run chases where Sri Lanka needed a good start. Warnapura was patchy but the dangerous Jayasuriya was firing from the other end. Wickets kept tumbling at crucial periods and the spinners were responsible for all that. The pitch assisted them and even a part-timer like Yuvraj dictated terms to the genuine batsmen. Sri Lanka never looked like winning and the Indians were the clear favourites.
Result: India win by 46 runs and alongwith it, they win the Idea Cup 3-1 with 1 game to spare.
Suresh Raina is the Man of the Match for his brilliant knock of 76 which played a crucial part in the 4th wicket stand with Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
Chaminda Vaas receives a special award. He joined the elite club of 400 wickets in this match.
Idea Cup, 2008; Sri Lanka vs India, 3rd ODI; highlights; R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo, August 24, 2008
Splendid victory for the Indians after they piled up a good fighting total on the board. The Sri Lankans never helped themselves by losing early wickets and were once again under a threat of being skittled out under 100. But the age old problem of the Indians came to the surface again as they allowed Thushara and skipper Jayawardene to settle in and pile on a fabulous partnership late in the innings. Once the partnership was broken, it was all over for the Sri Lankans. Mahela went down fighting but one needs to accept that the Lankans never batted well to chase this total down.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni is the Man of the Match for his fine knock of 76 which enabled India post a challenging total.

Idea Cup, 2008, Sri Lanka vs India, 2nd ODI Highlights, Rangiri International Stadium, Dambulla, August 20, 2008 The Indian bowlers bowled their hearts out but once again the age old Indian problem of not being able to skittle an opposition out came to the surface as the Lankan tail wagged to propel them to 142. The Indian batsmen failed once again and not having a specialist opening bat is going to hurt them badly in this series. The middle order was a bit shaky as well and the Indians need to do something to come out of this mess. However, one good thing is that, today the batters played Murali and Mendis much better. The end result is something that India will gladly take and they will hope that things get only better from here.
Zaheer Khan is the Man of the Match for his stupendous bowling figures of 4 for 21.

The new look Indian side didn't really do any better. India won the toss, elected to bat but their batting fell apart big time. The bowlers did well initially but then Kapugedera and Mahela got together in an unbeaten and match winning partnership. It turned out to be a one sided affair.
Ajantha Mendis is the Man of the Match for his bewitching spell of 3 for 21 off nine overs with 4 maidens.
