Here's Dhoni. India need 14 from 13.

Herath to Pandya, OUT, bowled him! Herath has just worked Pandya over here. Bowled it much quicker, on a good length, and got it to straighten. Pandya's front shoulder opens up again as he looks to whip across the line, and the ball beats his outside edge and pegs back off stump

HH Pandya b Herath 2 (4b 0x4 0x6) SR: 50.00
17.4
Herath to Pandya, 2 runs, down the track now and Herath holds his length back slightly. Goes over the top, chips into the gap between sweeper cover and long-off
17.3
Herath to Pandya, no run, lovely flight on middle and leg. Pandya is opened up a little, looks to drive to long-on, ends up driving back to the bowler
17.2
Herath to Pandya, no run, flighted ball on off and middle, driven to short extra cover
17.1
Herath to Kohli, 1 run, tossed up on leg stump, steps down the track, gets inside the line, and drives with a straight bat to long-off
 

Rakesh Souriraj: "When Yuvi fires , this Indian team looks even more dominating . They are real title contenders."
