India 150-3 (17 ovs) vs SL | Scorecard

Off-spinner Danushka Gunathilaka comes into the attack. Dhawan picks a single from the first ball and new batsman Rishabh Pant takes one from the third ball to get off the mark.

Another single for Dhawan before Pant is beaten outside the off-stump trying to run it down to thirdman before he drives the last ball to long-on for one.

Dananjaya comes back as Pant comes down the track but gets an inside edge before he takes a quick run.

Dhawan then pulls a short ball over the square leg region for a six and Pant hammers a flighted delivery over long-off for the second six of the over.

He goes for another big hit off the last ball but gets a thick inside edge for a single on the leg side.

Dhawan continues his big hitting as he heaves Gunathilaka over the leg side for another six and then takes one to take his score to 75.

Pacer Chameera comes back into the attack. Dhawan again gets the top edge which flies fine on the leg side for a six but smashes the last ball down the ground for another maximum.

Dhawan has raced to 89 from 47 balls as India reach 150 for three in 17 overs.
