4.6 overs (1 Run) Fuller and on middle. Nissanka heaves it to deep mid-wicket for a single. He didn't time well and good for him as there was a fielder stationed in the deep.
4.5 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Clears the infield! A length ball, outside off. Nissanka goes big over point and clears the infield for the ball to find the fence.
4.4 overs (1 Run) Length ball, on middle. Danushka Gunathilaka knocks it late on the off side and a quick single is taken.
4.3 overs (0 Run) Patel goes back to his slower deliveries. Fuller and outside off. Danushka Gunathilaka swings and misses.
4.2 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Good shot! Short in length, on middle. Danushka Gunathilaka pulls it nicely to square leg for a boundary.
4.1 overs (0 Run) A slower to start by Patel, fuller and outside off. Danushka Gunathilaka is deceived by the change of pace.
3.6 overs (0 Run) An appeal for LBW but nothing from the umpire. Might be going down leg. Another superb yorker by Bumrah, angling on the pads. Nissanka looks to heave it but misses and gets hit on the pads.
3.5 overs (0 Run) An off cutter from Bumrah, fuller and outside off. Nissanka backs away and tries to go over covers but fails to get any bat.
3.4 overs (0 Run) Length and around off. Nissanka makes a bit of room and slaps it hard but straight to mid off.

Rohit Sharma is having a word with the umpire. He seems to be having a problem with a white advertising board, which might affect the players to see the ball with the board flashing in front of the eyes. Wonder how the officials will deal with it.
2.2 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Finally, off the middle! Fuller, in the driving arc and Danushka Gunathilaka is up for the shot as he creams it through covers for a boundary.

Dasun Shanaka, the Sri Lankan skipper says they would have bowled first as well as the pitch was covered for a long time. He hopes the openers give a good start. Informs there are two changes.
Rohit Sharma, the Indian skipper, is in for a chat. He says they will bowl first. Mentions they just need to have the score in front of them, no other idea behind it.

PITCH REPORT - Ajit Agarkar says although it was raining for a long time, the ground staff have done a terrific job. Says the pitch looks in good condition and with lovely grass cover, the ball will come good on the bat. Deep Dasgupta adds the ground is longer on the one side and even the pitch looks good to bat. Ends, It will be interesting to see what the captains will choose.
Sri Lanka need their batters to step up if they are to level the series. In the first game, it was only Charith Asalanka who got a good start. Although they do have an experienced bowling pack, they have taken a blow in the spin department with the loss of Maheesha Theekshana due to an injury. There might be some new faces in this game. The visitors have a poor T20I record against India and they would be eyeing to turn their luck around. Also, the conditions are overcast here so rain might play a part. But we hope that it stays away from the action. Stay tuned for the toss and other updates.
With the bench strength that India possesses, their squad in the first game never looked like it was missing some big names. The skipper, Rohit Sharma used his bowlers really well and allowed Deepak Hooda and Venkatesh Iyer some time with the ball that did not go in vain. Also, the top order went all guns-blazing and would hope they continue in the same manner.  Until Ruturaj Gaikwad is fit to play, we should expect the same 11 for the hosts.
Hello and a warm welcome to the second ODI between India and Sri Lanka. The hosts have taken a 1-nil lead in the series. But now the conditions would be very different as both teams head to Dharamsala. India performed really well and got over the line convincingly by a 62-run margin.
