Kamindu Mendis loops it up, pushes it through and offers a half volley, Rohit Sharma gets to the pitch of the ball by tapping the front foot ahead, but goes back by transferring his weight on the back foot as he gets the desired width. Lofts it over the covers for a six. He made it look so easy.

Dunith Wellalage to Rohit Sharma, SIX! No holding back this time from Rohit Sharma but he seems to have hurt himself here. Tossed up in the slot around middle, Sharma sits down and swats the ball away a long way over deep mid-wicket for a 90-meter biggie.

Jeffrey Vandersay to Rohit Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT! Rohit Sharma did seem in a bit of a hurry and didn't hold on for much longer but a fine knock nonetheless from the Indian skipper. Jeffrey Vandersay provides the much-needed breakthrough for Sri Lanka and that is a top catch from Pathum Nissanka as well. This is bowled full and straight, Rohit goes for the big reverse sweep, almost a slog and ends up losing his balance. The ball gets lobbed off the top edge wide of backward point but Nissanka covers great ground and dives to his right to grab it.

Jeffrey Vandersay to Shubman Gill, OUT! CAUGHT! Wow, what a grab at first slip from Kamindu Mendis and he has pulled a rabbit out of the hat here. Jeffrey Vandersay tosses the ball up wide of the off stump, a bit full and gets it to turn away, Shubman Gill reaches out for an expansive drive but gets a thick outside edge that flies wide of first slip but Mendis shows great athleticism and leaps across, taking it with one hand and almost behind him as well. Jeffrey Vandersay filling in the shoes of Hasaranga brilliantly here.

17.5
Jeffrey Vandersay to Shivam Dube, OUT! LBW! Jeffrey Vandersay is on a roll here and the star performer from the previous game, Shivam Dube walks back for a duck. Vandersay pushes this one quicker through the air and on a nagging length on off and middle, this is the regular leg-break that turns back in sharply and again, Dube gets caught on the back foot and misses the ball completely. The ball thuds into the pads and the finger goes up right away. No need to review that one and Sri Lanka are right back in it.

19.4
Jeffrey Vandersay to Virat Kohli, OUT! LBW! Jeffrey Vandersay is picking the bones out of this Indian batting order and this time, Virat Kohli surely has to walk back. Looked like another wrong'un from Vandersay and he bowls this one a bit slower and fuller on the stumps, sliding it back into the right-hander. Virat Kohli gets a big stride in and looks to defend but is beaten and gets hit right in front of middle stump. There is a huge appeal and the finger goes up. Kohli has a word with Axar and starts walking.

Jeffrey Vandersay to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR! Gets it really fine and that is a freebie from Vandersay. Bowled flatter and on the pads, Shreyas Iyer stays back in his crease and just tickles it down to fine leg for a boundary.

21.5
Jeffrey Vandersay to Shreyas Iyer, OUT! LBW! A big appeal for LBW but 'No' says the umpire. Jeffrey Vandersay is very excited and they do go upstairs. Jeffrey Vandersay dishes out the conventional leg spinner on the fuller length. It straightens up instead of turning away. Shreyas Iyer is drawn forward as he anticipates the ball to turn and plays over the line of the ball and wears it on the pads. UltraEdge shows no bat involved and the Ball Tracker comes up with three reds. The on-field decision is overturned and Shreyas Iyer will have to depart here. Jeffrey Vandersay has snagged the first 5-fer of his ODI career. Remember, he is filling in the big shoes of Hasaranga. What a spectacular fightback this has been from Sri Lanka! India are still 108 runs away but they have now lost half of the side.

Charith Asalanka to Axar Patel, SIX! Axar greets Asalanka with a six! Nice and full outside off, from around the stumps. Axar Patel gets on the top of the ball and lofts it inside out and over deep extra cover for a six.

23.1
Jeffrey Vandersay to KL Rahul, OUT! CHOPPED ON! Massive, massive moment in the game! A nothing shot from KL Rahul and he perishes as well. The crowd at Colombo has gone bonkers with that scalp. Jeffrey Vandersay bowls it flat and quick, keeps the length fuller and around off, KL Rahul doesn't quite get his front foot out and tries to play the drive away from his body. Hence, he loses his shape and swings the bat weirdly. Inside edges, and the ball rattles the furniture in a jiffy. Sri Lanka is in total control of the game. Jeffrey Vandersay gets his 6th wicket.

30.1
Akila Dananjaya to Axar Patel, FOUR! That's run away to the fence! Slides it onto the pads, Axar Patel goes on the back foot and tickles it away past the keeper and into the fine leg fence for four runs.

Akila Dananjaya to Axar Patel, SIX! Axar Patel has taken the bull by its horns and moves into the 40s. Flighted up at 86 KPH and right in the slot on off and middle, Axar with an extension of the arms and he hits it cleanly over long on for a biggie. 10 off this over already.

33.1
Charith Asalanka to Axar Patel, OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Another excellent catch from the Lankans and the skipper has picked up a huge wicket here. Charith Asalanka keeps coming from around the stumps and angles it in on a length and into middle and leg. Axar Patel goes onto the back foot to flick but the ball holds in the wicket and Axar ends up chipping it back towards the non-striker. Washington Sundar tries to get out of the way and just like that Asalanka is diving across low to his left and manages to take it with both hands. Axar departs after a fine knock.

35.3
Charith Asalanka to Washington Sundar, OUT! LBW! Not sure what the initial appeal from the Lankans was for but Washington Sundar is out LBW and Sri Lanka rejoice. Charith Asalanka angles the ball in on a slightly fuller length and drops it on off stump, Sundar looks to push it off the front foot but is beaten past the inside edge and the ball just flicks the back leg before going into the mitts of the keeper. There is an appeal and eventually, the finger does go up. Sundar refers it and there's no spike on UltraEdge but Ball Tracking comes up with three reds. The Lankan skipper is at it again!

Charith Asalanka to Mohammed Siraj, OUT! LBW! TRAPPED IN FRONT AND SRI LANKA ARE ALL PUMPED UP AGAIN! Mohammed Siraj is down on his knees, disappointed but eventually goes for a review. Charith Asalanka darts in a fuller-length delivery, and flattens the trajectory. The ball considerably stays low and turns back sharply into the batter from outside off. Mohammed Siraj expecting the ball to bounce goes on the back foot to punch it to the leg side but gets deceived by the lack of bounce and plays it all over the line of the ball, and wears it low on his front pad. UltraEdge shows no bat involved and Ball Tracking confirms three reds. Sri Lanka just a solitary wicket from a tremendous win.

42.2
Charith Asalanka to Kuldeep Yadav, OUT! RUN OUT! That's it, Sri Lanka have won and they can't lose the series anymore. A bit of a pre-mature end and India will be gutted to lose the final wicket to a run out. Charith Asalanka bowls it quick and flat around off stump, cutting back in. Kuldeep Yadav stays on the back foot looking to cut but it is close to the body. The ball gets chopped back past the stumps and the keeper. Arshdeep Singh calls for the single but Kamindu Mendis at first slip is quick to get to the ball. He fires in a throw at the keeper's end and Kusal Mendis dislodges the bails. Sri Lanka WIN BY 32 RUNS!
