    15.2 Sharma is on his knee with his head on the top of the bat handle. He has picked out deep backward square leg to perfection. This is just short of a length, and he plays the pull. Just helps it around, times it well, and it goes flat and straight to the man 95/1

    33.4 Cleaned him up! Gill has to walk back and gets a pat on the back from Kohli. He looks to charge down and take him on. Exposes his stumps at the same time. Rajitha rolls his fingers over that and it stays low and then crashes into off and middle. Ends the 131-run partnership. 226/2

    45.3 Chipped to cover! Kumara digs it in outside off on a hard length. Iyer looks to heave it over cover off his back foot. But the bat turns in his hands and he ends up splicing it to cover inside the circle. 334/3
    47.5 Straight to deep cover. Short and wide outside off, it was asking to be hit. Rahul obliges but hits it straight to Wellalage the sub. No fireworks from the No. 5 today. 364/4
    48.4 Holes out to sweeper cover. Rajitha's change of pace does Suryakumar in. It is at 102 clicks, on a length outside off. He looks to take the aerial route but finds Avishka there. 370/5

    1.5 and what a placement it is. Siraj is continuing with his beautiful outswinger. Avishka leaves his bat hanging, a thick edge is taken, and goes low but straight to the sole wide slip. Gill takes it smoothly, making it look easier than it is 7/1
    7.3 Siraj has three. Nuwanidu knows he can't just keep defending. He has to play his shots. Sees an outswinger pitched up, throws his hands at it far away from the body, gets an inside edge, and is bowled 35/4
    3.6 and he continues bowling the outswinger. This is excellent bowling. Not getting carried away with his latest toy, the wobble-seam delivery. Oh actually this is the wobble seam delivery. The first he has bowled today. It pitches on a length outside off, and seams back in ever so slightly. Mendis pushes at it, but doesn't move close to it. Edged to the keeper 22/2
    6.3 the slowness of the pitch now. He gets the short length, cuts it, in the air, but he gets no timing on it, and finds the tallest fielder on the park, Axar Patel, at point 31/3
    14.6 Bowled through the gate! Lovely, lovely delivery. Tosses it up outside off, lands it full and draws Shanaka forward in defence. He does that and leaves a big gap between bat and pad, and that is enough for the ball to sneak in through. 50/7
    9.3 lovely inswinger, on top of off. Back to the wobble-seam delivery, and it seams in from outside off, hits the top of off and past the inside edge. This is carnage from Siraj 37/5
    11.4 Has Siraj now manufactured a run-out?. He might just have. This is a push back to the bowler, Karunaratne is overbalancing, and Siraj sends in a yorker at the striker's end. His foot moves over at the exact moment the ball hits the wicket. Siraj can do no wrong today 39/6
    15.4 This is catching practice. And Wellalage's stay in the middle ends. This is full and outside off, he square drives it but is shocked to see the ball fly straight to Kuldeep there. 51/8

    21.6 All over. Kumara's agricultural shot ends up in his downfall. Once again looks to heave Kuldeep's floated wrong'un over the on side. Gets an inside edge onto his front leg and then it ricochets onto the stumps. A massive 317-run win for India - the biggest in ODIs. 73/10
