This match has historic value as its <span style="font-weight: bold;">India's 100th Test win</span> in International Cricket history.<br /><br />India outperformed Sri Lanka in all departments by scoring a huge score of 642 and them getting them out early in the first innings and finishing off the game in the fourth day of the test match. Sreesanth performed well to claim the Man of the Match with his 6 wickets effort.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">This is what Sangakkara had to say after the match: </span>"It was a very good wicket. A bit in it for a few overs. It got slower and slower and made it a bit difficult to bat on. Exceptional performance by Sreesanth, great first innings by India and a poor one from us. that decided the match."<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">This is what Dhoni had to say after the match:</span> " It was important that we got that many runs on the first day. The changes in side brought in some fresh legs, Sreesanth is one of the best reverse swing bowlers in India. Ojha had a very good debut. It was important to win this big and gain the momentum; there will be something for the fast bowlers as well as spinners in Mumbai. It's a moment of pride for me, this 100th win, and I am honoured to be part of this side."<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Man of the Match Sreesanth said</span>: "God's been kind. I have lots of people to thank. Yet to read all those messages. I'm working on my pace, am trying to get it to the 145 kmph mark, I'm feeling good. I want to thank Warwickshire and the Indian board for letting me play there, I played quite a bit of domestic cricket too and learnt a lot. There is room for improvement and I want to keep on learning.
