India 174-7 (35 ovs) vs SL 236-8 | Scorecard

Dhoni and Bhuvneshwar not taking any risks as they look to collect the ones and twos and take India closer to victory.

Malinga is taken off as Sri Lanka bring back spinner Siriwardana, who bowls a tight over by giving away just a single.

Fernando comes back from the other end in place of Chameera. He bowls a couples of wides to Dhoni, trying to slant it across the right-hander, before he gets the edge which goes to thirdman for one.

Bhuvneshwar turns the last ball on the leg side for a single to keep strike to slow eat up on the target.

The duo pick up another three runs in the next over bowled by Siriwardana to continue their steady progress in the middle overs.

India enjoy a big slice of luck as Dhoni inside edges Fernando back onto the stumps but the bail fails to dislodge. How costly could that prove for Sri Lanka?

India have rallied to 174 for seven in 35 overs, needing another 57 runs from 12 overs for victory.
