July 27, 2017  15:34


SL 68-3 (15 ovs) vs India 600 | Scorecard

Ashwin looking to bowl a bit slow, giving it a bit of flight and trying to play on the patience of the batsmen. He has started off well and settled into a good rhythm.

Umesh gets Tharanga to edge one but unfortunately it flies in the gap between the wicketkeeper and the wide slip fielder and goes for a four.

The next ball is pitched up and this time he drives it off the middle for a cover through the covers.

Tharanga continues to find the gap through the off-side as he steers Ashwin through thirdman for a four to race to 48 from 40 balls.

Shami comes back, replacing Umesh and immediately gets a wicket. Two slips in place and yet Gunathilaka goes after a wide delivery only to edge it and is caught by Dhawan at first slip for 16.

Shami strikes again in the same over. A perfect outswinger which forces new batsman Kusal Mendis to dab at it but he gets an edge and is caught at first slip for a duck.
