SL 84-3 (18 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Tharanga's poor run with the bat continues. The left-hander chases a wide delivery from Pandya but only manages an edge and is caught in the slips for nine as Sri Lanka slip to 81 for three after 16 overs.

Pandya set up that wicket to perfection. He pushed back Tharanga with the bouncer before bowling a full wide delivery which the left-hander played from the crease but got the edge.

Mendis goes for the sweep against Chahal but is beaten as the Indians appeal for LBW. Sri Lanka will have to be careful for the next few overs and look to repair the damage else they could suffer another batting collapse.

Pandya using the bouncers to good effect. This time he forces Angelo Mathews to fend a short ball directed at his body. A good testing over from Pandya as Mathews plays cautiously before taking a single from the last ball.
