Karunaratne hits sixes in consecutive balls. SL gets 262 in their 50 overs! 32 runs in last 2 overs.
A shortish delivery by Hardik Pandya and Chameera swings it away for a boundary. The next one is a short ball from Hardik Pandya and Chameera pulled it away deep into the stands for a maximum. SL- 241/8 in 48.4 ovs
Udana perishes to the slower delivery by Hardik and goes for the big hit and mistimes his lofted drive. Chahar takes it comfortably at deep mid-on. The host have lost their eighth wicket. Score after 47 overs, SL- 223/8
He gets his second wicket of the game as Sri Lanka lose their seventh. A wicket in his 1st over and a wicket in his last over. Chahal gets the Sri Lanka skipper for 39. Sri Lanka 205/7
Two wickets in two overs for Deepak Chahar. He gets Asalanka in the previous over and now he gets Sri Lanka's x-factor player Wanindu Hasaranga. Lovely Catch by Dhawan at short mid-wicket! SL- 186/6 after 40 overs | END OF POWERPLAY 2
Deepak Chahar finally gets the better of a well-set Asalanka. Asalanka tries to nudge it down to the third man and edges one to Ishan Kishan. Chahar gets his 1st wicket. And Ishan Kishan gets his first catch on his ODI debut. A nice birthday gift by Chahar to Kishan. Score after 38 overs, SL- 169/5
FOUR, a fine shot by Asalanka!Its the slog sweep which gets the runs as the tossed up delivery by Kuldeep is whacked towards deep mid-wicket. 37 overs in and Sri Lanka are 165/4. 6 runs per over from here gets SL to 243. What do you think they will get to in 50 overs?
Sri Lanka playing a lot of dot balls but this approach is going to lead them nowhere. Boundaries have dried up and If they are to challenge this power-packed Indian batting line-up, they will need at least 150 more from here. Will they?
Dhananjaya de Silva is gone for 14. de Silva lifts the ball and is caught by Bhuvneshwar Kumar at long-off. India have their fourth wicket. Dasun Shanaka, right handed bat, comes to the crease. Score after 25 overs, SL- 117/4
One brings two and Kuldeep gets two in four deliveries. Yadav forces the set Minod Bhanuka (27) to go for a drive but the southpaw edges and Prithvi Shaw takes a good catch at slip. SL - 89/3 in 16.4 overs.
Rajapaksa miscues and a good running catch by the Indian skipper. After showing some promise, that's a shocking shot to get out too. Entirely off balance, absolute slog to a ball so wide. Poor from Rajapaksha. Kuldeep Yadav gets a wicket. Just like Chahal, this wicket will give Kuldeep too much confidence. SL- 85/2
What do you think about this?
No luck for Kuldeep as the batsman survives!
So Kuldeep Yadav is into the attack. The last time before today when Chahal and Kuldeep played together for India in an ODI match was against England at Birmingham in 2019. SL - 61/1 in 12 overs
B/w overs 1-10, known as the mandatory powerplay, only 2 fielders could be stationed beyond the 30 Yard circle. 2 more powerplays of 5 overs each could be chosen by the bowling side in which 3 fielders could remain outside the circle.
Debutant Bhanuka Rajapaksa gets off the mark with a maximum! That's a fine way to announce your arrival. Fifty up for Sri Lanka. At the end of the first power play: Sri Lanka 55/1. Minod Bhanuka 13 (21b), Bhanuka Rajapaksa 6 (5b).
