JADEJA FINISHES OFF THIS IN STYLE - INDIA WIN!
That's all over. India win by 7 wickets. What an innings from Jadeja. 45 off just 19 balls. India take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series. On to the dead rubber tomorrow. Good bye for now.
FIELDER DROPS IT! It was fuller on middle, Jadeja crouches and swings it over the bowler's head. Asalanka gets across at long-off and lets the ball burst through his hands into the boundary
What an over already. five runs in the previous ball. Jadeja hits another boundary to put the pressure back on Fernando. Lack of experience. Advantage India at the moment.
WHAT A CATCH! It was slightly short and well wide of off. Samson throws his bat at ball and slices a thick outside edge. Binura Fernando at short third man leaps across to stunning catch. 23 runs off that over as well.
Samson lines up this pitched-up delivery outside off, extends his hands, and launches it into the stands. He crunches this over the cover boundary for another six. He is in his full flow.
India are halfway through their chase. 80 runs in the first 10. They need another 104 to win this game and take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series.
He shimmies down the ground again and launches it from outside off over long-on, using the angle of the bowler. This one goes over long-on. Already an expensive over from Jayawickrama.
He read that well. Iyer uses his feet well and just helps it over the bowler's head with a straight bat. Didn't look like he tried to hit it hard but it still went for 93 metres.
Shreyas slashes this for a boundary. Slightly short, going away from him. He makes room and slashes this past the man at mid-on, who beaten by the power on the shot.
Another fabulous delivery. Short, and away from Iyer's body. He tries to place this. Edges this but beats Asalanka at first slip to race away for a boundary.
Excellent over from Chameera. Just four runs off it. A shaky start for India, but the players have managed to keep the scoreboard ticking. Long way to go in this chase.
Shreyas Iyer is off the mark. Four runs to start his innings. A fuller delivery on the stumps and Shreyas opens the face of the bat. Fernando gets a hand on it but such is the timing on this that the ball still runs away to the straight boundary, beating the chasing mid-off and mid-on
Rohit Sharma has to go. He has played this one into his stumps. It was a length ball outside off, Rohit was looking to dab it down towards third man but it's too close to him. Off the inner half of the bat and bounces on to the stumps.
India are off to a cracking shot. First boundary of the innings. It was too full outside off, Kishan just opens the face of the bat to steer it behind point. First boundary for India
