Rahul ‘The Wall’ Dravid played a captain’s knock as India levelled the series against Sri Lanka at 1-1 with a five-wicket victory in the third ODI in Goa.
Dravid scored 66, in the process reaches a milestone of becoming the sixth player in history to score more than 10,000 ODI runs. Dravid joins team-mates Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly, Pakistan’s Inzamam-ul-Haq, West Indian Brian Lara and Jayasuriya in the 10,000-run club. Tendulkar is presently leading the pack with 14,783 runs.
His partnership of 133 with Wicket Keeper Mahendra Dhoni, who ended unbeaten on 67, proves crucial for Team India. Earlier on in the day Zaheer Khan took 5-42 as Sri Lanka were restricted to 230-8. Zaheer’ claimed his career-best figures in one-day internationals, although two of his victims were controversial lbw decisions. Russel Arnold top-scored with an unbeaten half century from number seven after none of the Sri Lankan top six reached fifty.

Insipite of the brilliant work on field - there still remain a few loopholes in the Indian squad. Team is on the brink of the mammoth extravaganza but the experimentations in the squad just don\’t seem to die down - the management is finding it a herculean task to specify the appropriate spots for the lads.
The bowling department of late has grown in stature but still the slot for the fifth bowler hangs in oblivion - just evident from yesterdays game where the slot was filled in by Tendulkar and Sehwag who amid themselves conceded 65 odd runs (this type of team ploy is just not pardonable if the country wants to relive 1983).
