IND SL 2nd T20 Highlights: Set a record total, India went hard early but the approach backfired after yet another top-order collapse. Kasun Rajitha starred as Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill were dismissed in just the second over of the innings. Rahul Tripathi, making his debut, got off the mark with a boundary but was sent packing by Madushanka.

Hardik Pandya played a couple of attacking strokes before being dismissed by Chamika Karunaratne. India were 34/4 when Deepak Hooda walked into bat. The hosts mellowed down and played out overs before Hooda miscued a pull off Hasaranga to Dhananjaya de Silva. Axar Patel walked into bat and India were 64/5 at the halfway stage, needing well over 14 runs an over.

The left-hander unleashed an array of strikes, picking up boundaries at will. Suryakumar Yadav, who knocked it around until that moment also began playing his trademark shots. The Men in Blue needed 109 to win off 42 balls when Axar launched a hat-trick of sixes off Hasaranga to launch India’s comeback. India picked up 26 from the over as Suryakumar also got one over the ropes in style.

Axar, who scored a career-high 31 in the last game, went past that in style and registered in maiden 50 in just 20 balls. Surya reached his milestone in 33 deliveries. India seemed to be gaining the edge only for Madushanka to get Surya out for 51.

Shivam Mavi played a couple of delightful strokes but the target proved to be too much in the end. Shanaka bowled the last over with India needing 21. Axar was out off the 3rd ball and SL cantered to a 16-run win in Pune.

Earlier, captain Hardik Pandya won the toss and opted to field first again stumping the experts’ view. On a ground that favours teams batting first, SriLanka got off to a flyer aided by Arshdeep Singh and Shivam Mavi overstepping. Arshdeep bowled a hat-trick of no-balls as Kusal Mendis got his eye in.

While Nissanka struggled, Mendis played his array of shots hitting the Indian pacers to all parts of the ground. Arshdeep went for 19, Mavi conceded 24 off his first two overs while Umran was not welcome. Kusal got to his fifty off just 27 balls as SriLanka piled on 80 in the first 8 overs.

The Indian spinners Axar Patel and Yuzvendra Chahal led India’s fightback. Chahal struck first as a well-set Mendis was dismissed LBW. Umran saw the back of Bhanuka Rajapaksa while Dhananjaya de Silva was no match for Axar Patel. Nissanka continued to struggle and eventually held out in the deep for 33.

Charith Asalanka set the bowl rolling with four sixes as Dasun Shanaka got his eye in. Umran got Asalanka and Hasaranga off consecutive balls. However, Shanaka piled on the runs at the death once again. Arshdeep Singh had the SriLanka captain caught, but it was deemed to be another no-ball.

Insidesport

The left-arm pacer bowled 5 no balls, an unwanted record, on a forgettable day at the office. Mavi conceded 20 off the last over as SL got to 206/6. Shanaka reached his fifty in 20 balls, the fastest ever by a SriLankan. The skipper’s efforts saw the Lankans break their 12-game losing streak against India in India.
