India stormed into the final of the ICC Cricket World Cup beating Pakistan by 29 runs in the second semi-final at Mohali last night. Batting first after winning the toss, India were restricted to a modest 260 for nine by their arch-rivals. Sachin Tendulkar, who was declared Man of the Match, was the top-scorer with 85. Chasing the target of 261, Pakistani batting crumbled against some brilliant bowling by the Indian seamers and spinners. They were all out for 231 runs in 49.5 overs. For India, five bowlers including Ashish Nehra, Zaheer Khan, Munaf Patel, Harbhajan Singh and Yuvraj Singh claimed two wickets each. With this victory, India maintained their unbeaten record against Pakistan in 36 years of World Cup history. The high-voltage match was watched by the Prime Ministers of the two countries and millions of passionate fans across the sub-continent. India now meet Sri Lanka in the final in Mumbai on Saturday. Both the teams, who have lifted the coveted Trophy once, are in the final of the World Cup for the third time.
