SL's got a decent foundation, let's see where they take it

Ravi Bishnoi to Nissanka, out Lbw!! That's an excellent decision by the umpire. There was half an appeal from Pant and Bishnoi just enquired with the umpire, but the finger was raised. The googly turns back in and Nissanka looks to play the late dab, the ball brushes the pad first and then deflects off the bat to short third. The contact was bare minimum but the Ruchira Palliyaguruge spotted it all the way. Nissanka lbw b Ravi Bishnoi 32(24) [4s-5]
Ravi Bishnoi to Nissanka, THATS OUT!! Lbw!!
Sri Lanka review! Nissanka is given out LBW. But he's reviewed it immediately. The ball brushes the pad before the bat. Impact is umpire's call and wickets is hitting. OUT
99-2 in 12 ovs
Parag coming in to bowl
Ashish: "It finally took a non-regular spinner in Parag to remind Bishnoi to bowl like a spinner, and not like a spinning medium pacer. Always find it weird with the new crop of spinners in T20s not using the pitch conditions when available too."

SL reaches the 100-run mark
Moorthy: "Both in Zimbabwe and in Sri Lanka - India seems to have 4 full time bowlers and then part timers ....does it look like a strategy or poor selection !" -- I think they're seeing the bigger picture at the moment, but I don't think they'd do it at the cost of a defeat
