Only tendulkar from india is on that list. We have one of the best or the best balling line up in the world with murali(best spinner of all time), malinga and ajantha mendis,etc

Let me remind you what happened today... Gul the main attacking bowler of Pakistan and Afridi who took lots of wickets in earlier matches were incapable of doing anything to India.
Along with that, Australia's bowlers also failed at restricting India in the Quarter Final.
Have you even watched any of India's matches, especially the batting???
India will win hopefully.

India's powerful batting lineup that was restricted to a mere 260 on a batting pitch...
Sri Lanka will win this. They have momentum, they had a comfortable win against New Zealand, and Murali will be aiming to make this last match memorable.
Watch out India, don't get too cocky...

haha, if Murali will be aiming to make this last match memorable, Sachin will be winning this World Cup for India in his last time playing in the World Cup!
And, about the 260 on the batting pitch;
Let me just remind you: http://www.espncricinfo.com/icc_cric...ch/433567.html
Enough said.

For many of us, India vs Pakistan was the final match. Winning that one has made us proud and satisfied. We are not much worried about the game on saturday. Both teams are capable and in the end it will be the team who had a better day.
India bashed out one of it's neighbours and will try its best to kick out the other neighbour too.

Like I said before malinga didn't play.
Let me remind you of something: Of the 6 encounters of India and Sri Lanka in the world cup.... Sri Lanka won 4 of 6 times. Most recently we kicked india out of the world cup at the first group stage.
India hasn't won a world cup in 30 years, and why would they try to break their golden streak now?

What are you talking about?
Did you miss the India vs Pak match yesterday?
Are you trolling or just being ignorant?

Yeah, guess that's all.
EDIT:
(1) That celebration link is awesome. I wish I had been there to see it. Sadly, I was at home, wallowing in bitter disappointment.
(2) Maybe waldo meant that India didn't exactly BASH Pakistan. I wouldn't say it was India's alleged superior skills that won them the match, but rather Pakistan sort of not coming together (or putting it plainly...Pakistan shooting themselves in the foot multiple times.)
Yep.
