(Colombo 9th ODI - 02 Aug 2001)

After Shewag's dismissal, the level headed pair of Rahul Dravid and Hemang Badani brought some sanity to the proceedings. Knowing that the required rate was not alarming and the target eminently achievable the pair went on to pick off the runs with ease. After getting well set, both Dravid (57 not out, 76 mins, 56 balls, six fours) and Badani (35 not out, 51 mins, 38 balls, three fours, two sixes) treated the audience to some exciting strokeplay. The most important thing however was that they saw India through to the final to be played against Sri Lanka on August 5. In the 46th over Dravid and Badani did just that, and the joy is there for all to see.
