6.1 Khan to Tharanga, OUT, caught at slip! And Zaheer hasn't conceded a run yet. Zaheer pitches the ball on a length around off, forcing Tharanga to prod because of his line as well as the pressure he's created, the ball nips away from the left-hander off the pitch and Tharanga edges it. The chance flies quickly to Sehwag's right at first slip and he takes it before falling to the ground. Breathtaking start this from Zaheer.
12.3 Sreesanth to Sangakkara, FOUR, rubbish attempt from Sreesanth, Sangakkara drives a full ball along the ground towards the bowler and Sreesanth made space between his legs to allow the ball to pass through, once it beat the bowler, that was four.
47.5 Khan to Jayawardene, FOUR, century for Mahela Jayawardene, pure class, Zaheer bowls it full, but again offers some width, Mahela tees off over mid off, what a champion, he has not done much in this tournament, but what an occasion to come good.
49.6 Khan to Perera, SIX, 63 runs off the batting Powerplay, 22 off 9 for Thisara, gets a fuller delivery in his swinging zone, swivels, and hammers it over deep square leg for maximum Sri Lanka have surged to 274, thanks to an elegantly effective century from Mahela Jayawardene. This will take lots of chasing, they have a terrific bowling attack.
0.2 Malinga to Sehwag, OUT, Given out lbw, and immediately reviewed. Looks like a goner on replay! Back of a length delivery on middle stump, Sehwag was rising on the toes on leg stump line as it skidded through. He was on the hop as he closed the face and looked to flick. Misses the shot. Was there an inside edge? No evidence of that. Was that high? Not really - hit him under the roll. It's hitting middle. Three reds. Superb start for Sri Lanka! Sehwag top-scored for India in the 2003 final. Fair to say, he won't be the top scorer today.
6.1 Malinga to Tendulkar, OUT, The ball that silenced a billion. Most of Wankhede is silent. Some of it is very noisy, and has Sri Lankan flags waving away in a frenzy. Sachin's World Cup is over. No 100th 100 today. Malinga gets another over, another go at a wicket, and he responds with a wicket. It's that patent back of a length ball outside off and as always, Malinga got it to go away. Sachin tried the same shot, last ball of the previoius Malinga over, trotting across and looking for the steer through the off side. This time he edged it, and though it was dying on Sanga, he wasn't going to put it down. He dives to the right and comes up with the biggest wicket of the World Cup.
7.2 Randiv to Gambhir, FOUR, Gambhir goes for the slog-sweep and it comes off! He's found the big gap at deep midwicket and that ball bounces over the boundary, not far off being a six.
31.2 Perera to Dhoni, FOUR, Dhoni flashes hard and gets a boundary! He's got a little width and the ball was shortish, and at Perera's pace that is asking to be hit, which Dhoni does, cutting hard in the air through cover
43.1 Perera to Dhoni, SIX, Six over point! Wankhede goes mental! It was the shortish delivery outside off and Dhoni hopped, rode the bounce and played a superbly wicked cut over point. The white ball kept flying.
48.2 Kulasekara to Dhoni, SIX, Thunderous wallop! Start the tuk tuk indeed. A stunning crashing blow to achieve it. It was a full delivery and Dhoni has sent the white ball flying over long-on. Indian contingent have gone mad. The dressing room erupts with joy. Dhoni had a poor batting record in World cups. 34 was his highest. And what does he do? He promotes himself and has played a fine knock to pull this off. Yuvraj envelops him with a hug. What a knock from Gautam Gambhir and Dhoni. Spare a thought for Mahela Jayawardene who unfurled a sublime knock to set up this target. It's India's night though. It's Dhoni's night. India are the world champions.
