India will take on Sri Lanka in their third ODI match of the tri-series at Mirpur in Bangladesh today. India have four points with a win from two matches and will aim to book a place in the January 13 final by beating Sri Lanka at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium. Sri Lanka have already qualified for the final after crushing Bangladesh by nine wickets on Friday. The hosts are yet to open their account from three matches. A win for India today will also be a sweet revenge for their five-wicket loss to the same opponents on Tuesday. India need a strong start from Sehwag and Gambhir if they have to beat Sri Lanka today. Sehwag, in particular, would want to score big as he has not hit a hundred in Bangladesh.All India Radio will broadcast a running commentary on the match from 1.30 pm till the end of the match. It will be available on FM Gold, Rajdhani and additional frequencies.
