SL 191-7 (38 ovs) vs India 375-5 | Scorecard

Pandya comes back in place of Shardul, who bowled a couple of overs in his second spell. Pandya continues his short ball tactics against left-hander Akila Dananjaya, who avoids the first two balls before taking one on the off-side.

Mathews turns the fifth ball to square leg for two runs as just three come from the over.

Mathews looks to play the inside out lofted shot against Pandya but fails to make proper connection and picks up just a couple over the covers.

Mathews swings Axar over the square leg for a four but the bowlers gets revenge immediately off the very next delivery.

Mathews goes for another big swing but mishits it and is caught on the off-side after a good innings of 70 from 80 balls.

Axar strikes in his final over to finish with one for 56 in his 10 overs.
