4th ODI Impressions, Kolkata, India v Sri Lanka 2009.

With India leading 2-1, Sri Lanka has to do the running. The absence of Dhoni and Yuvraj has given Sri Lanka an opening and it now depends on the Sri Lanka bowlers to pressure the Indian batting juggernaut.

Unfortunately, they have been unpenetrative through out the series. Ajantha Mendis mystery is missing; the medium pacers are cannon fodder and the only redeeming feature has been the ability of their batsmen to make a game of it.

This match could well be a repeat of Cuttack.

It could be difficult for India to pull this one off. But expect the unexpected from Sehwag.

Am rooting for India to finish off the series today.

I think the Sri Lanka charge has exhausted itself. The law of averages should catch up with Dilshan & Sangakkara today.
