Sri Lanka after enduring a major share of struggle in the international circuit finally brought an end to their series drought as they thrashed Shikhar Dhawan-led India by seven wickets in the third and final T20I to win the series 2-1. This was Sri Lanka's first series win since 2019 and it also put a halt on their five-series losing streak. Wanindu Hasaranga, who is celebrating his 24th birthday, starred in the win for Sri Lanka with a record-breaking spell. The spinner completed his four-over quota with clinical figures reading 9/4. He removed Sanju Samson and Ruturaj Gaikwad in his first over and also dismissed Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Varun Chakravarthy in the middle overs.  Hasanranga's effort played a pivotal role in the clash as the Men In Blue could only manage 81/8 in their respective 20 overs after electing to bat first, which also is India's third lowest T20I total.
