Its Fiat Yamaha one-two in San Marino MotoGP

Valentino Rossi drove a prefect race t win his 3rd consecutive victories. His rival Stoner retired after the front wing was destroyed. Then Rossi took over the lead and drove a perfect race to win the san Marino GP in style. This was Rossi's first victory in hometown.

It started when Stoner took the pole position 7th time in succession. Rossi took P2. In the opening line of the race Rossi could not contain the Honda Repsol's Dani Pedrosa. He eventually over took the former.

It was in the lap 6 that the moment happened. Stoner slid and crashed into the gravel and made no room for his return to track this ensured the return to competiton was not possible. He was forced to retire. LAst season it was Rossi who was forced to retire due to mechanical breakdown and surrendered the race to Stoner who eventually won the title as well. It was vice versa this year.

Rossi is in a dominant form this season that lead to build up a lead of 75 points over stoner and his personal points in the season moved to 262. It seems the title contention is over as there are only 5 races remaining in this season. Rossi ended his 5 year c'ship title 2 years ago and now promises to start another era. Its down to 5 races for another feather in the cap for Valentino Rossi. Good luck Champ.

Mystery revealed, India win Series

Indians finally untied the Mendis box in the ODI series. Dhoni & co used their feet as weapon to unsettle the spinner combo of murali and mendis and eventually won the series and the last ODI being a mere foramlity to the series.

The script started with Dhoni winning the toss for the 4th time in the series and electing to bat on the flat surface. Ghambir, looking ordinary in the ODI, and Kohli gave India a decent start of 44 run when the former was caught for 17. UV came into the scene. Patience was the word from the doctor i guess. After consuming a 11 ball for without scoring one expected a UV to stamp his authority latter but fell as the 400th victim of Vaas. Disappointment again. Then Kohli played a decent knock as a teenager and left pitch with score reading 81-3. This brought the Raina-Dhoni duo. They played beautifully finding gaps and testing the fielders. Rotating the strike was the key factor.

Dhoni and Raina went passed their 50's. India seemed to gain momentum when the disaster struck for India. Dhoni and Raina went in wuick intervals leaving a tough job in the hands of Rohit Sharma. India was restricted to 258 in 50 overs.

Srilanka chase was supposed to be easy given the flat surface. But just fell for selection of their shots. With warnapura and Kumar sangakarra gone with the score of 38, it showed a sense of panic in the dressing room with the run rate required creeping up. The YOUNG GUN, Sanath Jayasuriya came up with a blitzkerg smashing 8 hits to fence and 2 over the fence. The duo of jayawardena and him made a threat. However it was cleared when TURBUNATOR scalped him. He was involved in a crucial run - out of Jayawardene. It was a clear panic in Lions camp.
However, Dhilsan, Kapugedera and Vaas tried to bring back the hopes they kept finding their way back to the dressing room.

UV found his lady luck with the ball filling up the quota of the 5th bowler. He did bowl with zest and valour giving the ball flight and mxing up deliveries and struck 2 crucial blows as well. Thushara tried to make a mtch out of it but was of no use. Zaheer and Praveen went through the top order and continued their form as well.

Earlier, India just gave 2 wickets to Mendis and Murali. Indian Think-Tank is on the right track. Congrats to TEAM INDIA
