India vs Sri Lanka Match 11 Star Cricket Live Streaming
The World Cup champions easily chased down Sri Lanka's 320 for four, scoring 321 for three off just 36.4 overs with man-of-the-match Virat Kohli slamming an unbeaten 133 off 86 balls.
The win sees India join Sri Lanka on 15 points in joint-second place in the tri-series table but Sri Lanka can still knock them out of the tournament by winning their last game against leaders Australia, in Melbourne on Friday.
Australia are already in the best-of-three match finals, which get underway in Brisbane on Sunday.
Sri Lanka looked to be in the box seat after centuries from Tillakaratne Dilshan, who equalled his best one-day score of 160, and Kumar Sangakkara 105.
But India, faced with having to reach their target off just 40 overs to snare the bonus point, did it easily, claiming the extra point with 20 balls to spare as Kohli and Suresh Raina (40 not out) flayed the demoralised Sri Lankan bowling attack.
Gautam Gambhir chipped in with 63 off 64 balls after openers Virender Sehwag (30 off 16 balls) and Sachin Tendulkar (39 off 30 balls) gave India a flying start.
Match scores: Sri Lanka 320 for 4 (50 overs); India 321 for 3 (36.4 overs).

India VS Australia 2nd Test Live Cricket Score 2012
Clarke batted through the day for his first test double century and the highest score by an Australian at the Sydney Cricket Ground, while Michael Hussey pitching in with 55 not out to give Australia a lead of 291 over India's first innings 191.
Ponting had departed just before tea for 134 to end the fourth-wicket partnership with Clarke at 288, a record for Australia in tests against India and a potentially match-winning effort from a pair who came together with the score on 37-3.
Needing victory to level the four-match series after a 122-run defeat in the opener in Melbourne last week, India's bowlers had been hoping for some early wickets but instead laboured all day in the heat.
Resuming the innings on 116-3, Clarke clipped a shot off his pads for three runs to bring up his fifty on the second ball of the morning and continued to play with composure as he moved towards his third century in his last six tests.
The 30-year-old reached his 18th test century, and the first of the series from either side, in the last over of the morning by slapping a Zaheer Khan delivery through the covers.
Ponting, who last scored a test century against Pakistan in Hobart in January 2010, matched his successor as captain almost run-for-run throughout the session but endured a nervous wait on 97 through the lunch break.
Three overs into the afternoon, however, the 37-year-old reached his 40th test century with a rushed single off the bowling of Ishant Sharma that could have cost him his wicket.
As Zaheer's throw at the stumps missed, Ponting was able to pick himself up, brush off the dust and take a standing ovation from the 30,000 crowd.
It was the first long period of dominance for the bat in a series where bowlers have had the upper hand and India's attack looked like journeymen until the new ball arrived.
Sharma finally broke up the partnership when he got some bounce into his deliveries and Ponting caught the ball high on the bat to give Sachin Tendulkar an easy catch in the gully.
By that time, Clarke had already reached his 150 and continued to hit the bowlers all over the ground to pass his previous best test score of 168 shortly before tea.
Sharma could have dismissed him caught and bowled on 182 but just failed to keep hold of the ball and Clarke reached his double century a couple of overs later.
The landmark arrived with two runs through square after 365 minutes, 284 balls and included 24 fours and a single six and Clarke celebrated wildly, running around the pitch swinging his bat in the air.
Hussey joined in the run-spree with some gusto and hit his 50 off 70 balls, reaching the mark an over after hitting two fours and a six in successive balls off spinner Ravi Ashwin.
It was undoubtedly Clarke's day, though. An authoritative cover drive saw him past Doug Walters' previous Australian record at the ground of 242 and there was still time to raise the 250.
India have never won a test series in Australia and face three days of hard work if they are to keep alive their hopes of doing so this year.

Both teams bowlers will be really differentiate them in exact manners of victory.Indian bowlers have capability if they remain fit other wise its tough for them to out Australian batsmen.From Australian side bowling department is some how in lower space and they feel more difficult to destroy world strongest batting line.
Both sides are undoubtedly flawed, but it’s India who look the more likely to achieve excellence if they can avoid injuries and get key players to click. They certainly won’t want for motivation as key players look to score a series victory in Australia after years of trying.
It certainly won’t be easy though. Whilst defeat by New Zealand at Hobart confirmed that Australia have some way to go before they can look forward to a new era with a great deal of hope, they have unearthed some young players with the desire and ability to succeed at the highest level.

Australia Vs India 1st Test Cricket Live Streaming 2011
Australia's top three in the batting order -- David Warner, Ed Cowan and Shaun Marsh -- have just five Tests between them in one of Australia's most unfamiliar combinations in more than three decades.
Warner has played just two Test matches but comes to the Melbourne Cricket Ground with a last start unbeaten 123 against New Zealand, while three-Test Marsh crunched 99 off 52 balls in domestic Twenty20 just days ago.
Debutant Cowan earned selection on the strength of his 109 for a Chairman's XI against India this week along with three first-class centuries this season.
While the Australian team is in transition, India's top five batsmen -- Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar and VVS Laxman -- boast a combined tally of 610 Tests.
In the first of four Tests for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy it is India's experience against Australia's untried potential.
Wicketkeeper Haddin, who will be an important member of the Australian batting lineup at number seven, said it was time for the home team to stand up and meet the Indian challenge head on.
"You talk about our inexperienced top three, I think we've got a very in-form top three," Haddin told reporters on Sunday.
"And if we're going to do any good in this series it's going to be from one to seven with the bat. We've all got to perform.
"We've got to make sure we've got our game heads on and ready to go."
Coach Mickey Arthur arranged a batting camp this week and Haddin said the three-day get-together was to clear the batsmen's minds.
"Freeing your head, having no other thoughts in your head but just playing cricket," Haddin said.
"You'll see over the next five days whether it has all paid off."
Australia are also conceding huge amounts of big-match experience with the ball to India, with two of the four frontline bowlers, James Pattinson and offspinner Nathan Lyon, in their first year of Test cricket.
"We've picked an 11 that we think is confident to rip through this Indian side," Haddin said.
"They've got some great players and I know especially our bowlers are looking forward to having a crack at them."
Pattinson, just 21, has taken 14 wickets in his two Tests against New Zealand, while Lyon has 22 wickets from his seven Tests at 24.59.
Tendulkar, Dravid and Laxman have indicated they will go after Lyon to dent his confidence.
"We're just hoping that we score some runs off him, try to put pressure on him," India skipper MS Dhoni said.
"The kind of experience we have got, that will really help us in executing our plans."
Australian captain Michael Clarke said Lyon will have to be managed carefully during the series, but he regards him as a potential weapon against a team who are traditionally adept at playing spin bowling.
"We've got to make sure we bowl Nathan at the right times, set the right fields to give him a little bit of protection and then attack when it's time to attack," Clarke said.
Tendulkar could score his 100th century in Tests and one-day internationals during the four-Test series.
He has been anchored on 99 hundreds since March and Dhoni said Tendulkar was putting aside the speculation and pressure linked to his impending achievement.
"He's someone who keeps it really simple," Dhoni said. "He will get it at some point in time, whether it's this series or the next series.
"I don't think there's any added pressure on him.
"A hundred hundreds in international cricket, it's something really big. The whole of cricket, all over the world, people will really cherish the moment when he gets his hundredth done." (AFP)
