Chameera 以 A Patel

Six runs. SIX! Dushmantha Chameera to Axar Patel. Reverse Swing-Out full toss, wide outside off stump deep in crease flick, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. India has set a challenging total on the board. As usual, Abhishek Sharma was in top form, smashing 61 runs off just 31 balls at the top of the order. After Abhishek had been dismissed, Tilak Varma and Sanju Samson played well, managing the scoring rate effectively. Collectively the Sri Lankan bowlers were expensive and conceded a few extra runs due to inaccuracies in their line and length. It is now down to the batters to see if they can chase down this target and secure a win to end their campaign. Let's find out in the run chase.
