77 from last 5

We need 207 to win

SL: 206-6 after 20 overs

207 to win, looks difficult for Ind

19.4 Shivam Mavi to Shanaka, SIX, and that's fifty for Shanaka off 20 balls! His supremacy against the Indian bowlers has been impeccable. He has defied the law of averages as well. That was short, outside off, Shanaka flat-batted it and the man at long-off tipped it over the bar. Mavi has been given a hiding tonight. That's T20 for you. Was short, outside off, Shanaka didn't time it but got enough wood on it

Ashish: "Umran has improved his line tremendously since his debut. He was a little wayward but now most of his deliveries are good line. Its ok to go for runs but that improvement is evident. And that pace. Team him up with Bumrah for the WC."

Bhai sahab

Kitne No ball fheke hain inn logo ne

India ka aajtak ka highest no ball tha in this match.

Shanaka, Mendis and the no-balls headline the first innings. Lanka have ended with a huge 206 after 20 overs. They were 138 for 6 when Shanaka decided to go bonkers. He was caught off a no-ball and post that just upped his game. India had to tend to their own self inflicted wounds and have been left with 207 to chase down. Lanka started off on a quick note as well as Arshdeep's return was a nightmare with him bowling 5 no-balls in his two over spell. Lanka do have enough but India won't go down without a fight. We will be back in a bit.

Anish: "Shanaka loves to score against India. "

Sri Lanka vs India,

8.43pm What a knock from Shanaka, who finishes 56 not out off just 22 balls, with two fours and six sixes. Sri Lanka smoke 77 runs in the last five overs to set India a stiff 207-run target. All thanks to Shanaka. Sri Lanka started off like a train hammering 47 runs in the first four over. The spinners, Yuzvendra Chahal and Axar Patel, then got India back into the game conceding 54 runs off their eight overs and picking three wickets. But the pacers were off the mark big time. There were no-balls galore, especially from Arshdeep Singh, who went for 37 off his two overs. India have a mountain to climb. Can they do it?
