Yesterday's scheduled game being washed out, the weather finally gave us a match today. MS Dhoni won his straight 4th toss, which to a certain extent had its role. In the last game one could see flaws in Dhoni's knock which eventually turned out to be a match winning one in hindsight. But today was different. Battling a fever from yesterday and intense fatigue and bouts of head-spin it was a fantastic knock 71 (80) from the outset. Built completely on utter determination to win, there were also finally glimpses of his hard-hitting self. The knock of the match however was Suresh Raina's 76 (78) - look out for some absolutely breathtaking strokes from Raina. Their partnership nullified Mendis and Murali with surprising ease and India eventually reached 258, with things falling away towards the end.
