Sri Lanka in India Three Test, five ODI and Two T20 match seriesSri Lanka will be looking for the elusive test match and series win when they tour India for a Three Test, five ODI and Two T20 match series from November to December 2009. The team arrive in India on November 8th for the 55-day tour.
 Compaq Cup Tri-series in Sri LankaHarbhajan, Tendulkar star in India’s Compaq Cup victorySeptember 14, 2009 Sachin Tendulkar's 44th ODI century, his 86th international hundred in total (138) and Harbhajan Singh's five-wicket haul helped India to secure victory in the Compaq Cup final played at R.Premadasa stadium. Yuvraj Singh (56 not out) and skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni (56) chipped in with useful contributions as Sachin added 95 with Rahul Dravid (39), 110 with Mahendra Dhoni and 71 with Yuvraj Singh after India won the toss and made 319-5. Sri Lanka were all out for 273 in 46.4 overs with Harbhajan Singh returning an impressive haul of 5 for 56. Tillakaratne Dilshan (42) and Sanath Jayasuriya (36) gave Sri Lanka a flying start before Harbhajan started chipping away, dismissing both Dilshan and Jayawardene. Thilan Kandamby (66) and Chamara Kapugedera (35) kept the hosts in the hunt but ran out of steam in the end with Harbhajan taking the last three wickets. It was an impressive turnaround for India, who lost by 139 runs when the sides met in a group stage game at the same ground two days back. This latest victory puts India back to within a single ratings point of South Africa and with just two points separating first from third placed Australia in the table. Australia, already four-nil up in the seven-ODI series against England, could go top of the rankings if it manages a clean sweep.

Sanath Jayasuriya cracked 98 off just 79 deliveries and Thilina Kandamby raced to an unbeaten 91 off 73 deliveries towards the end as the hosts piled up a formidable 307 for six, batting first. For India, opening duo of Dinesh Karthick and Sachin Tendulkar made a promising start, before Karthick fell for 16 runs from 23 balls. Tendulkar soon followed him back, lasting 33 balls, hitting 5 fours for 28. Rahul Dravid (47) and MS Dhoni (8) fell in identical fashion within the space of 2 overs, followed by Yusuf Pathan (1), Harbhajan Singh (4) and Ashish Nehra (1) - all to Angelo Mathews.

With this win, India, now with 128 points, are technically #1 in the ODI rankings, ahead of South Africa, who have 127.
