12.6
Kuldeep Yadav to Chameera, no run, gets forward and bunts it. But for the colours, you can mistake this for a Test match
12.5
Kuldeep Yadav to Dananjaya, 1 run, shuffles across and works this to wide long-on
12.4
Kuldeep Yadav to Kusal Perera, out Caught by Dhoni!! This has proved too easy for India's spin twins. Kusal Perera looks to come down the track and slog but there's a little bit of dip and turn on this leg break, meaning he's puffed out a big top-edge that Dhoni collects. Kusal Perera c Dhoni b Kuldeep Yadav 19(28)

10.6
Kuldeep Yadav to Perera, 1 run, flicked through mid-wicket, just the single

Kuldeep Yadav to Perera, 2 runs, beautiful bowling. A thick inside edge on the drive, wide of long-on. Two for Perera to open his account

10.2
Kuldeep Yadav to Shanaka, out Caught by Hardik Pandya!! Slogs and holes out. Right off the toe of the bat. Hardik Pandya runs in from long-on and takes an easy catch. Nicely tossed up on off, drew the big hit, but landed short of the lofting length. India all over Sri Lanka now. Shanaka c Hardik Pandya b Kuldeep Yadav 1(6)
10.1
Kuldeep Yadav to Kusal Perera, 1 run, shortish and turns away, Kusal Perera cuts in the air, but wide of cover-point. Easy single to sweeper cover

8.3
Kuldeep Yadav to Kusal Perera, 1 run, "ye bahut accha tha" [this was very good] is the praise from MS to Kuldeep Yadav. Kusal Perera had already set himself up for the sweep, but the length is short, so he has to short-arm jab and does so, finds deep mid
8.2

6.4
Kuldeep Yadav to Mathews, 1 run, with the turn, played well. Soft hands and turned through backward square for a single
6.3
Kuldeep Yadav to Kusal Perera, 1 run, uses his feet and flicks wide of mid-wicket. MS sings "bowler, bowlerrrrrrrrrr" and the throw comes to Kuldeep Yadav on the bounce. Rightly they don't take the second
6.2
Kuldeep Yadav to Kusal Perera, no run, good fielding by Chahal at backward point. The reverse sweep was struck well, but straight to the fielder and he got his body behind it to stop
