SL vs IND Live Cricket Score

4.3 OUT! The off stump is dismantled! Good ball but a poor choice of a shot from Dickwella. This is what happens when you premeditate too much. Dickwella's favourite shot is the paddle scoop but he perhaps chose NOT TO play it, since fine leg was back. However, there was some confusion in his mind. He made a late call to play the reverse scoop but Bumrah outsmarted him. He kept this very full and Dickwella missed. The sound next heard was the timber unearthed. Bumrah shows his aggression, clapping Dickwella off the field. 46/2

2.2 OUT! Knuckled out! The slower ball from Bhuvi which he has developed so well - the knuckle delivery. Tharanga does not pick it and swings wildly at a length ball in line of the stumps. Misses and the zinc bails illuminate. First wicket for India. 23/1

11.2 OUT! BOWLED! Excellent variation from Kuldeep. He slows the pace and then bowls the googly. Munaweera goes back to pull this over square leg but he misses the ball and the bat flies out of his hands. Lands just in front of the square leg umpire! The ball hits the timber and the Indians have a giggle. End of a fine, fine knock. 99/4

6.3 OUT! That is some lightning quick work by Dhoni and Mathews has to go! Floated outside off, Mathews lunges to defend but is beaten by the away spin. Dhoni collects the ball and before Mathews can even think about dragging his foot back, MS whips off the bails in a flash. There is an appeal made which is referred upstairs. Dhoni himself is not too sure. The third umpire checks a couple of angles in which one shows Mathews to be on the line while another shows him to have something behind the crease. One would have normally thought the third umpire to play safe but nope, he trusts the stump camera angle which does seem to show Mathews has got nothing behind the line. OUT flashes on the giant screen. 62/3

13.3 OUT! Chopped on! Chahal has his revenge. Outside off, a bit flatter, Thisara goes back and looks to cut but perhaps the ball comes slowly off the pitch. Takes the inside edge and knocks the stumps down. 113/5

14 OUT! LBW! Isn't that a bit too high? No one cares. At least not the Indian side. This is outside off, the wrong 'un, Shanaka prods forward to defend but misses and is hit high on the back pad. Chahal appeals and the umpire upholds it. Replays seem to indicate height but there are no reviews in T20s as of 2017. Sri Lanka completely out of sorts now. 113/6

16.4 OUT! He is gone this time! Slightly short, around middle and off, Prasanna looks to pull but gets more height than distance. He picks out Virat Kohli to perfection at deep mid-wicket who simply reverse cups the catch. Second wicket for Kuldeep. 134/7

2.4 OUT! Malinga gets rid of Rohit! A big wicket for the Lankans. Back of a length delivery around off, Sharma sticks back to power it across the line over the leg side. But he fails to middle his shot. It flies off the top edge and Perera calls for it from mid on. He settles underneath it and takes the skier safely. Lasith draws first blood! 22/1

5.4 OUT! What. A. Catch. Take a bow, Dasun Shanaka. Tossed up ball on off, fuller in length, Rahul tries to play an inside-out shot with the spin but fails to make the proper connection. As a result, he fails to find the desired elevation. It flies to extra cover where Shanaka throws his body to his left and takes a stunning catch. Prasanna has a wicket. They are all pumped up. You can sense different energy in the field from the Lankan Lions. 42/2

18.3 OUT! Totally against the run of play. Udana serves a fuller length delivery in the line of the stumps, Kohli leans across and unfurls an effortless flick shot. Plays it in the air with the intention to clear mid-wicket. However, there isn't enough distance behind the shot. Shanaka near the fence catches it calmly to bring an end to an outstanding knock. 10 needed off 9 balls. 161/3
