SL 207-5 (44 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Axar bowls another tight over, conceding just three runs, to end a good spell with figures one for 30 in 10 overs.

Jadhav comes back into the attack. He starts with a short ball which Siriwardana pulls but only for two runs followed by two singles.

Siriwardana steers Jadhav to point where the fielder misfields to give away two and the wild throw gives them the third run too to bring up the left-hander's half-century from 49 balls.

Chahal, who has one over left, comes back. He is unlucky not to strike with the final delivery as Kapugedera throws his bat at a wide one but gets an edge which wicketkeeper Dhoni is unable to catch and it goes away fine for a four to bring up Sri Lanka's 200, in the 43rd over.

Chahal put in another impressive showing with the ball to finish with two for 43 in 10 overs.

Kedar continues as he concedes three singles from the first three balls before bowling a wide down the leg side to concede three extra runs. However, he does well to give away just one from the last three balls.
