...THE RUN CHASE…
Sri Lanka, after electing to bowl, will be disappointed. They did not begin well and leaked runs in the Powerplay. They did manage to pull things back in the middle overs courtesy Lahiru Kumara, Jeffrey Vandersay and Shanaka but all the good work was given away as the death bowling was not at all good. In the end, they now face a stiff task ahead and will have to bat out of their skins if they are to chase this down. They need good start to get anywhere close to this target. Stay tuned as for an entertaining second-half of this game.
It all began with the openers who put up a 100-run stand. Kishan was the aggressor and Rohit played second fiddle. Once Rohit fell, there was a quiet period for India where Kishan and Iyer were finding it difficult to maintain the same tempo. Kishan fell 12 short of his ton trying to up the ante but then Iyer exploded. He found the boundaries at ease and gave India a solid finish to get them close to 200.
What a performance with the bat by India. Scoring 199Â on this big ground on a wicket which hasn't looked the easiest, is a tremendous effort. They will be very pleased with their outing.
19.6 overs (1 Run) So a single to end the innings! A low full toss outside off. Jadeja pulls this hard but it goes towards long on for a single. This has been a superb batting performance by India. India finish with 199/2 after 20 overs!
