Indian batsmen fail yet again in the final. India were set a target of 273 by the Sri Lankans. Seeing the trend of the series the target was achievable. However there was one man between India and the Asia Cup. The debutant in the series Ajantha Mendis was the hero for the Lankans. He cleaned up the Indian batting line up as he picked up 6 wickets in the match. None of the Indian batsmen could read him. He deservedly bagged the man of the match and the Lankans lifted the Asia Cup in rejoice. This makes the forthcoming Test series interesting.It will be indeed interesting to see how the likes of Sachin, Saurav, Dravid and Laxman play Mendis and Murali.
