August 24, 2017  23:15


India 201-7 (40 ovs) vs SL 236-8 | Scorecard

India need 42 from 54 deliveries as Malinga comes back but still no signs of Dananjaya, who still has two overs in hand.

Dhoni plays four dot balls in a row from Malinga before he pulls a short ball to fine leg for one. The last ball is a full toss which Bhuvneshwar clips to square leg for two runs.

Sri Lanka's key weapon Dananjaya comes back. Dhoni steals a quick single from the second ball before Bhuvneshwar punches a short ball through the covers for a four.

The next ball is again short and this time Bhuvi pulls it over midwicket for another four to take India past the 200-run mark and bring the target down to 30.

India have reached 201 for seven in 40 overs, with Dhoni on 34 and Bhuvneshwar on 36 with the partnership worth 70 runs at the moment.
