Kuldeep Yadav was the star of the show as India defeated Sri Lanka by 41 runs in a low-scoring thriller at R Premadasa Stadium, Colombo on Tuesday. Sri Lanka's youngster Dunith Wellalage too showed brilliant all-round skills but failed to take his team over the line. Defending a total of 213 runs, India bundled out Sri Lanka for 172 despite Wellalage's gritty 42 not out. With the win on Tuesday, India booked a spot for themselves in the final of the tournament.
The winner of the Pakistan vs Sri Lanka match will advance to the final of the tournament. This means that Bangladesh are all but out of the race for a final beth.
If the match between Sri Lanka and Pakistan is washed out due to rain, Sri Lanka will advance to the final on the basis of a better NRR.
