Rahul Dravid scored an unbeaten 177 on the first day of the first Ahmedabad test match against Sri Lanka, as India recovered to post 385/6 by the time the stumps were drawn. MS Dhoni was the other centurion in the innings, as Indians recovered from their abysmal start of 32/4 and got to the realms of safety.

The Indian selectors have sprung a surprise by recalling back S. Sreesanth in the 15 member squad that they announced for the first two test matches against Sri Lanka. Sreesanth had been out of the Indian team for some time now thanks to injury and his on-field temperament, and was even warned by the BCCI to mend his ways.

India beat Sri Lanka by 46 runs in the finals of the Compaq Cup tri-series as Sachin Tendulkar hit his 44th ODI century to garner another man-of-the-match award. With this win, the Indians managed to stop the run of successive losses in the finals in Sri Lanka, and will go into the Champions Trophy, with some confidence. On the other hand, Sri Lanka fought well, but fell short of the target as they kept losing wickets at regular intervals.
