Anyways it's the other Jadeja we should be talking about. Ind win by 7 wkts, and man of the match goes to Ravindra Jadeja

@nshah - I've been digging around, and yep you're right, Ajay had a go at Bollywood:
Vinod Kambli's in it too. Pretty dire film according to this review though:

probably seemed like a good idea at the time
nshah (21 Dec 2009):
Didn't Ajay also make the transition from cricket to Bollywood? Anyway, everybody knows that Ajay was just taking the fall for some of the bigger players in Indian cricket.
teej101 (21 Dec 2009):
India are out to bat - 25/0 from 4 overs. I'd say they look pretty good for the win here
teej101 (21 Dec 2009):
Oh yeah, I forgot Ajay Jadeja got the 5 year match fixing ban. He looks like such a good boy though
teej101 (21 Dec 2009):
@nshah Thought it was Ajay Jadeja for a moment. I liked that guy. Sri Lanka all out for 239, they looked so threatening at the start too
nshah (21 Dec 2009):
Someone should sort out these Indian pitches. Featherbed after featherbed. I want to see some carnage, stumps out of the ground and clueless batsman.
India is one of the toughest tours in cricket and Dhoni has an excellent group of players at his disposal. Sri Lanka also posses talent in abundance, but do they have enough fight or grit to get a result? Expect high scoring matches, spinners galore, medium pacers working tirelessy, sixers and more.

India are renowned for their flamboyant batters but have in recent years given rise to a number of respectable bowlers. They have quite a balanced team and some serious mettle in the form of Harbhajan Singh, who has sorted out both Matthew Hayden and his own team-mate Sreesanth. He is just an example of the new ruthlessness appearing in Indian cricket.

The youngest recognised team in world cricket, they revolutionised one-day cricket with their opening over onslaughts at the 1996 World Cup. A very steady team, who like New Zealand, often prove to be more than the sum of their parts and have provided us with some of the more unusual bowlers on the world stage, such as Muralitharan or Ajantha Mendis.
