Rahul, Dhawan hit 50s; India make strong reply

November 19, 2017 15:36

India 116-0 (27 ovs) & 172 vs SL 294 | Scorecard

Perera drops short as Dhawan cuts it past point for a four and then takes a couple of singles to bring up his fifty, from 74 balls.

Sri Lanka make a change as they introduce their most experienced bowler Rangana Herath as they look for a wicket or two to check India's charge.

Dhawan had attacked Herath in their previous series last year and he continues the same tactics. He tries to hit one down the ground but fails to make proper connection for a single to long-on but later in the over he gets under one and lofts it over mid-off for a four.
