SL 209-7 (48 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Arshdeep comes back for a fresh spell. Wellalage hits a full toss down to long-on for a single to bring up his maiden fifty, from 59 balls.

He has been instrumental in Sri Lanka's superb recovery on a difficult pitch, getting them past the 200-run mark after they looked in danger of getting bowled out cheaply.

Dananjaya plays a delightful shot, ramping Arshdeep's short ball fine on the off-side for a four and takes strike with one from the last ball.
