Sri Lanka Beats India By 6 Wickets

Sri Lanka prevails by a single ball.

Arshdeep's final over, in which he attempts to stop at 7, is superb. He performed wonderfully, but Bhuvneshwar's wide yorkers in the 19th left the youngster with too much work to do. He made numerous attempts, but Sri Lanka had the necessary experience to help them cross the finish line.

After the humiliation in the first game against Afghanistan, what a reversal for them. They now hold a berth in the Asia Cup final after winning two of their first two games in the Super Four. After Sri Lanka lost 4 for 13, Shanaka and Rajapaksa made a fantastic team.

In Sri Lanka's favour, 21 out of 12 needed

With only one of each Hardik, Arshdeep, and Bhuvneshwar remaining, Rohit needed to make a decision. Hardik was given the 18th, and he actually started the over by thoroughly mixing it. Shanaka successfully manoeuvred an outside shot past Pant for a four and later ducked beneath a short ball to pull off a six over fine-leg. twelve runs off the over.

two significant sixes

Sri Lanka is back in range of attack after Rajapaksa slogs sixes off Chahal and Ashwin, respectively. India has two off Arshdeep and one each off Bhuvneshwar and Pandya.

Sri Lanka is now down four.

After their 97-run opening stand, they are now 4 for 13. In-form Gunathilaka was eliminated by Ashwin after being caught at long-off. Then, Chahal uses his slider to tap Mendis squarely in front of the stumps. The half-centurion is no longer present, and India is now gradually entering the game. Rajapaksa and Shanaka remain for Sri Lanka to see this pursuit through.

Final score for Chahal is 3 for 34.

Two in an over for Chahal:

Can India recover from their opening stand of 97 runs? Nissanka's attempted reverse sweep provides the opening. Then, an out-of-sorts Asalanka top-edged a slog sweep, and all of a sudden, India was still in the match.

India comes in last with 173

from the last 4 overs, 38. Two overs contributed to 29 of those. Madushanka finished with amazing statistics of 3 for 24, conceding just 4 runs from the 19th and taking two wickets (Pant and Hooda). Karunaratne was equally outstanding. Despite Ashwin getting him for 8 from the next two balls, he finished with 2 for 27. He ought to have got three as well, but Ashwin ran two and Hasaranga dropped a dolly off the final delivery. Could it end up being important?
