New Delhi: Sri Lanka won the game by chasing 174 runs against India. It was a thriller of a game again and people would have had joy in the stadium. Half-centuries from Nissanka and Kusal Mendis laid the stage and Bhanuka Rajapaksa and captain Dasun Shanaka ended the chase with their power hits.
Rohit Sharma scored 72 off 41 to lay a partnership with Suryakumar Yadav after India started 13/2. Dilshan Madushanka brings back hope in the Sri Lankan pace attack as he used some seam movement to end up with the figures of 24/3. Chamika Karunarathne and Shanaka took two wickets each.
A 97-run stand for the Sri Lankan openers to start off the chase. Chahal gave hope by striking twice in an over. Ashwin bowled well to end up with 32/1. Bhuvneshwar going for 14 runs in the 19th over was a game changer. Though India lost, Arshdeep is the new hero with great bowling in the death with all the pressure on his shoulders.
