Match Preview:
India face New Zealand in the last league match of the tri-nation tournament also involving the hosts, Sri Lanka, at Dambulla on Wednesday the 25th of August. The Lankans have already cemented their spot in the finals and the winner of this contest will join them. Both teams have won a game each, but the Indians have lost two of their games, whereas the Kiwis had one of their games washed out by rain. New Zealand are currently in second place in the table and in case this match is washed away too, they will advance to the final. The teams last met in the opening match of this tournament and on that occasion, the Kiwis notched up a comprehensive victory by 200 runs. Batting under lights has usually been difficult at Dambulla and the teams winning the toss have usually decided to bat first. However, three of the four matches that produced results ended in favour of the team batting second. Hence, the captain winning the toss might think twice before electing to bat again in this series.Teams:
India: Dinesh Karthik, Virender Sehwag, Rohit Sharma/Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (capt & wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Praveen Kumar, Ashish Nehra, Ishant Sharma, Pragyan Ojha
New Zealand: Bradley Watling, Martin Guptill, Ross Taylor (capt), Kane Williamson, Scott Styris, Grant Elliot, Jacob Oram, Gareth Hopkins (wk), Nathan McCullum, Kyle Mills, Daryl Tuffey
Players to watch out for:Yuvraj Singh: Yuvraj finally seemed to be back to his usual self-against Sri Lanka, but a poor umpiring decision led to his downfall. His form hasn't been too good over the past year or so, and injuries and fitness problems haven't helped a lot. Yuvraj will be desperate to make a big contribution and silence his critics.
Ross Taylor: Taylor has been New Zealand's best batsman over the past couple of years. He is an excellent player of spin and is among the hardest hitters of the cricket ball in the world at present. He played a captain's knock in the opening match against India and another similar innings from him might take his team to the final.
