11.3 OUT! TAKEN! Axar Patel strikes now! Pathum Nissanka tries to go big, but holes out this time. Axar Patel bowls this short again and on middle, Pathum Nissanka backs away a bit and goes for the heave, but he fails to get the right connection and hits it flat and in the air towards wide long on. Rahul Tripathi there runs to his left and takes a terrific catch to mark his debut. The umpires want to check if the catch is clean or not (the soft signal is out), and the replays confirm that it is a fair catch. Three wickets on the last 20 deliveries and it's a resounding comeback from the Men in Blue. 96/3

| Kusal Mendis Wk | 52 | 31 | 3 | 4 | 167.74 |
|
8.2 OUT! LBW! Chahal removes the danger man. Flatter delivery, landing full around middle and straightening a bit, Mendis strides forward to defend but misses and is pinged on the pads. It looks a lot straighter this time but the finger stays down after the appeal. Hardik Pandya goes for the review. The UltraEdge finds no bat and the Ball Tracking shows three reds. India have a breakthrough now as Mendis falls after a breezy knock. 80/1

| Bhanuka Rajapaksa | 2 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 66.66 |
|
9.1 OUT! STUMPS SHATTERED! A 146.8 kph delivery, short and around off from 'round the wicket. The angle takes it close to the batter who tries to use the pace and run it down to third man. All Bhanuka Rajapaksa manages is an inside edge and the stumps behind are disturbed. A good period of play for India as they are making a comeback. The move to promote Bhanuka flops for Sri Lanka. 83/2

| Charith Asalanka | 37 | 19 | 0 | 4 | 194.73 |
|
15.5 OUT! CAUGHT! This time it has gone straight to Shubman Gill. Umran Malik speeds in and darts in a length ball around middle and leg at 142.8 kph, Charith Asalanka stays leg-side to this delivery and tries to heave it over mid-wicket. He doesn't time it well and is caught near the boundary line. A big breakthrough for the home team as Charith was looking dangerous. 138/5

| Dhananjaya de Silva | 3 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 50 |
|
13.4 OUT! TAKEN! Axar Patel with a double blow in no time! Dhananjaya de Silva fails again and throws his wicket away. Axar Patel sees the batter advance down the track and angles this into the batter, on leg, Dhananjaya de Silva still goes through his shot, but loses his grip as he connects with the ball. As a result, the ball goes up without any timing towards long on where Deepak Hooda settles under it to take a nice catch. Sri Lanka are four down now. 110/4

16 OUT! OFF STUMP GOES FOR A WALK! The crowd roars and Umran Malik is pumped up. A sharp length delivery, on off at 140.4 kph and skidding off the surface after landing, Wanindu Hasaranga sits inside the crease like a dead duck. He attempts to defend it but plays down the wrong line. The ball scoots through and obliterates the off pole. What a sight! 138/6

1.1 OUT! BOWLED 'EM! Sharp delivery from Kasun Rajitha. He delivers it full and around off, nipping back in a bit with superb pace, Ishan Kishan stands back to whip it over the leg side but ends up playing all over it. The ball sneaks behind to rattle the stumps and it's a big setback for India. 195 runs needed in 113 balls! 12/1

| Shubman Gill | 5 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 166.66 |

2 OUT! CAUGHT! Kasun Rajitha has his second and he has sent both the Indian openers packing. A touch short and around off at 130.5 kph, not short enough to pull though. Shubman Gill stays back to attempt his favourite wristy pull shot but goes half-hearted at it. The ball takes the top edge and flies to mid on where it's a simple catch for Maheesh Theekshana. India on the back foot! 21/2

| Suryakumar Yadav | 51 | 36 | 3 | 3 | 141.66 |

15.5 OUT! TAKEN! Dilshan Madushanka gets a huge, huge wicket for Sri Lanka. The crowd goes absolutely silent here at the MCA Stadium. Dilshan Madushanka serves this full and outside off, Suryakumar Yadav looks to loft it over long off, but loses his grip and skies it up in the air off the inner half of his bat. Wanindu Hasaranga at long on settles under it and takes a good catch under pressure. This could prove to be the turning point of this game. 59 needed off 25 balls. 148/6

4.4 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! What a stupendous flying catch by Kusal Mendis! India are in tatters - four top-order batters back in the hut. Chamika Karunaratne sends across an outswinger, on a length and close to off, Hardik Pandya tries to get close to the delivery as he attempts to drive but it takes the outside edge and scoots behind. Kusal Mendis reacts well and takes a stunning catch diving across to his right. 34/4

9.1 OUT! TAKEN! Wanindu Hasaranga strikes! Deepak Hooda has to go back for a low score this time around. Wanindu Hasaranga bowls a leg-spinner, short and outside off, Deepak Hooda goes on his back foot and tries to pull it away, but the ball sticks to the surface a bit and Hooda fails to get any timing on that and slices it instead.

This is a high full toss, outside off, Axar Patel smashes it towards the long off fence where Chamika Karunaratne runs to his right and takes a splendid catch. The on-field umpire gets it checked for the high-waist full toss but it's fine and the catch is also clean. With that, India's hopes of getting a win diminish. 189/7
