India have won the closely fought final by 46 runs and with it captured the tri series. It was always going to be difficult to chase down 320 but Sri Lanka fought hard and kept the hopes alive. There were few anxious moments int the game but the match slipped away from Lanka's grip with regular fall of wickets. Kandamy played a courageous knock of 66 off 94 but was done in by Harbhajan Singh. The Turbanator claimed 5 wickets and emerged as chief destroyer. India still have some lessons to learn as their fielding standards continue to drop. It is a major worry and India will have to improve drastically in this department
