Ind 195-8 (33 ovs) vs SL | Scorecard

India have collapsed here after the rain break thanks to some brilliant bowling by spinner Akila Dhananjaya. 

Saini is the new man in and he is narrowly beaten. 

Rahul Chahar is the new man in and he gets off the mark with a single of the first ball he faces.

Rana out next ball as Dhananjaya tosses the ball up, inviting Rana to drive, he gets the edge and caught behind for 7.


Spinner Dhananjaya continues and Gowtham and Rana take a single each of the first two balls before Dhananjaya strikes again! Gowtham is wrapped on the pads, big shout for LBW, yes says the umpire. Gowtham takes the review and loses it as he has to walk back to the pavillion. 


K Gowtham is the new man in as Shanaka continues. 

He gets off the mark with a single in the over and just two come in the over.



Dhananjaya is back in the attack and the batsmen take three singles before 
Suryakumar is struck on the pads. The umpire says not out but Sri Lanka take the review and again a good one to take as he is hit on the pads first and is hit in line. Suryakumar goes for 40 and India lose their 6th wicket.


Rana is the new man in and he gets off the mark with a single. 

Suryakumar then ends the over with a boundary. 


Jayawickrama continues and after three dots, Hardik is out LBW as Sri Lanka do well by taking the review that shows the batsmen is plumb. 

He goes for 19 off 17. 


Shanaka back in the attack and he gives three runs in the over as he bowls a nice line.
