Colombo: There's a difference between failure and success. And it's called MS Dhoni. For the first time in years, the Indian cricket team is making a habit of beating the odds. This is something they haven't done very effectively, or regularly, in the past, despite boasting trump-cards of world cricket, like Sachin Tendulkar for instance.
With Sunday's victory; India have a 2-1 lead over their opponents in the ODI series and they now have the psychological edge. The Indians need to win one of the two remaining games to bag a series victory. For the first time in 23 years in a bilateral series against Sri Lanka in Srilanka, India have won two successive ODIs.
India may be leading, but the Sri Lankans know they can make a comeback. Lanka captain Mahela Jayawardene's knock of 94 in the third match cannot be undermined, given the fact they were reeling under pressure when the came in.
If Indians win the series, it will special because it isn't often that Sri Lanka concede a series on home turf. Such a feat could be another feather in Dhoni's cap.
