Despite regular dismissals, the visitors have not stopped going for the big hits. Arshdeep and Umran have proved to be very costly. Umran Malik has taken three wickets while Axar Patel has taken two wickets. Yuzvendra Chahal gave India the first breakthrough as he caught Kusal Mendis in front of the wicket. Before that, Mendis slammed a 27-ball half-century to boost Sri Lanka. It all started with Arshdeep Singh giving away 19 runs in the 2nd over, after he bowled three no balls on the trot. Sri Lanka scored 55 runs in the powerplay without losing a wicket and most of that was because of Mendis' strokeplay.
