India 184-1 (38 ovs) vs SL | Scorecard

Sri Lanka running short of ideas as they bring back Lahiru, who has also been expensive, giving away 36 runs in his first six overs.

India have it easy against him as they milk the fast bowler for five singles.

Dhawan continues his assault as he late cuts Perera through the vacant thirdman region for a four and then takes one. Pujara comes down the track and whips the off-spinner through midwicket for three runs.

In the next over, Pujara completes a half-century in style as he hits a full toss from Lahiru through the covers for a four. The next ball is full and on the stumps as Pujara flicks it through midwicket for another boundary.

An angry Lahiru tries a couple of bouncers but Pujara can easily duck under it before he defends the last ball on the off-side.
