The ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 matches have been exciting all around this year, and the upcoming game will bring a fantastic finish to this year's tournament. On the schedule will be the final match featuring the India vs Sri Lanka game shown online via live stream video.
According to
ESPN CricInfo, today's game has a start time of 9:00 GMT or 14:30 local time on Saturday, April 2, 2011. This showdown in Mumbai is the final game of the tournament and will see either India or Sri Lanka capture the World Cup in 2011. The two team captains recently met for a friendly photo opp, but don't expect as much friendliness once this game is underway Saturday morning.
In a preview of this conclusive ICC tournament game, Sri Lanka had some concerns about Muttiah Muralitharan's health as he skipped a practice session on Thursday. Muttiah had issues with regard to his hamstring, a side strain, groin injury, and knee problems throughout the tournament. However, his coach has noted that Muttiah is going to play in the final.
Both teams have some powerful batters with Sri Lanka's Tillakaratne Dilshan—the leader in most runs for the ICC 2011 tournament at 467 total. He's trailed by just 3 runs by India's Tendulkar. Also, on the top runs scored list are Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara and Tharanga, as well as India's V Sehway and Yuvraj Singh. Basically, between the two squads, there are six of the 10 top batters of the 2011 World Cup for cricket.
This will also make for the first ever all-Asian World-Cup final. MS Dhoni and Kumar Sangakkara will captain the two squads making for what should be quite the showdown in the final game of this amazing ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 tournament!
