SL 221-7 (47 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Bumrah comes back and he does well to strike with the key wicket of Siriwardana, who looks for a big shot but holes out to Rohit Sharma on the off-side.

Siriwardana played a nice hand of 58 from as many balls but lost his wicket at just the wrong time as far as Sri Lanka is concerned.

Bhuvneshwar comes back and he nearly strikes too. Kapugedera swings it across the line on the leg side as Chahal at deep midwicket drops a sitter on the edge of the boundary and also ends up a couple of runs.

Meanwhile, Dhawan puts in a full length dive at point to save a boundary and concede just a single as six runs come from the over.

Bumrah bowls a quick yorker as Kapugedera is beaten and hit on the toes but the leg before appeal is turned down by umpire Paul Reiffel. India immediately take the DRS but the replays show there was an inside edge.

Bumrah showing why he is one of the most difficult bowlers to hit in the death overs in limited overs cricket as he keeps mixing up his pace and length quite well.

He finally gets his man as a quick yorker breaks through the defences of Kapugedera to bowl him for 40.
