This fellow delibaretly didnt allowed Sachin to complete his Century. Karthik is a useless Wicket keeper and he is below average batsmen with a crooked nature.

You need to understand Sachin first before accusing others.He could have gone for his century but he chose to steer India home without any hiccups.In fact,he has said many a times in his interviews that he would making 90s with India winning to fruitless centuries.Dont overreact and celebrate India's victory.

sachin is a good batsman but think is that only total india's victory not a single person victory. That is not at all required. He may play 2 or 3 years. After that????? u will talk abt his centuries only. In his period how many time we got World cup?????? tell me first.
When india was in good command and they just need 2 runs then karthik scored 4 runs which he could avoided by which century of sachine would hva ensured.

Indian bowlers specially Bhajii, Jadeja and Ishant(in 2nd spell) bowled very well. But their bowling was not like this to contain Lankans under 250 from 165/2. It was brainless batting by Lankans. With sensible batting they could easily reach 300. They were trying to make 400. They lost the match because of over confidence.

tht 2nd spell was very crucial which contained them to less than 250 and ensured indias victory and lankans tried to score against some gud bolwing causing their defeat and nt bad batting exactly

I am also saying same. Lankans tried to quick score against good bowling and didn't bother the wicket falls. If they had played sensible cricket, they would have reached aroung 300. There was nothing special in the wicket for bowlers. Even they could reach 300 by taking singles.
india needs to prep for high score from lankan team,
it is not about new ball, look at karthik,
he could hit when gambhir or yuvi could not because lankan have figured their batting style like they did for dhoni. This is why Dhoni is forced to play slow and that can be detrimental when lankas have big score.
So some batsmen need to be rotated/rested and batting lineup needs to be prepared as well to do better.
Karthik needs to chat with Tendulkar for more consistency.
Century does not matter even these number records are more than total centuries scored by many good ODI batsmen in world cricket.
