India 242 for 3 (Tendulkar 96*) beat Sri Lanka 239 (Tharanga 73, Jadeja 4-32) by seven wickets
Sri Lanka lost nine wickets for 74 runs and slumped to 239. Nehra, Jadeja, Harbhajan and Ishant did the hard work then, and after a rousing 44 from Sehwag, Tendulkar patiently made an unbeaten 96. The fans wanted a century from him but he didn't manage one. Personal records should not matter, because the real victory is that India have taken a lead in the series.
