Chahal 2-37(4 ov)
14.6
Chahal to Perera, 1 run, dropped? Chahal's reaction suggests so. Short ball, smashed straight back at Chahal who stretched his right hand and only succeeded in parrying the ball to mid-off
14.5
Chahal to Perera, no run, floated full on middle and leg, flicked to mid-wicket
14.4
Chahal to Tharanga, out Bowled!! Off stump shattered. Very poor from Sri Lanka's most experienced player. Tharanga sets himself for a biggie and stoops to one knee to launch Chahal over mid-wicket, gets defeated by the drift and lack of pace, off pole takes the beating. Tharanga b Chahal 17(18) [6s-1]
14.3
Chahal to Shanaka, 1 run, pitches outside leg and spins in towards middle, Shanaka uses his wrists to nudge a single round the corner
14.2
Chahal to Tharanga, 1 run, stays low and muscles this legbreak over mid-wicket, fielder in the deep and he'll only manage a single
14.1
Chahal to Tharanga, 2 runs, googly dished wide of off-stump, Tharanga makes use of the width to steer that behind point for a couple of runs
10.6
Chahal to Tharanga, 1 run, punches this quicker delivery and Washington Sundar misfields at extra cover to concede a single
10.5
Chahal to Tharanga, SIX, down on one knee, gets a pie from Chahal and the next thing he sees is the ball sailing over the cow corner fence. That was ruthlessly hammered by Tharanga, a swivel and bam he goes...
10.4
Chahal to Kusal Perera, 1 run, shuffles out of his crease and milks a single to long-on. Sensible batting this from Kusal Perera
10.3
Chahal to Kusal Perera, FOUR, slips it down leg, Perera plays it with the spin and gets a top-edge on the sweep, rolls away to the fine leg fence
10.2
Chahal to Kusal Perera, no run, no room, Perera forces the punch to the left of Chahal who dives to tie the batsmen at their respective ends
10.2
Chahal to Kusal Perera, wide, throws the slider wide of off-stump, perhaps trying to second guess the batsman there. Epic fail. Perera lets it go
10.1
Chahal to Kusal Perera, no run, dances down and gets too close to the pitch of the delivery, drills the drive back to the bowler
8.6
Chahal to Tharanga, no run, gets the googly going and beats Tharanga's outside edge from over the wicket
8.5
Chahal to Chandimal, out Bowled!! He's undone him. Gets the full ball drifting in and then skids it through. Chandimal completely misses it, hoodwinked by his lack of judgement of the length and then the pace. That's not a ball to give your wicket to, perhaps; you flick those for boundaries. Chandimal b Chahal 14(11) [4s-1]
8.4
Chahal to Chandimal, 2 runs, good work by Dhawan at deep mid-wicket. Sharp throw. Chandimal uses his feet for a couple through mid-wicket here
8.3
Chahal to Chandimal, FOUR, nowhere near the pitch of the ball there but he's gotten an all-hands boundary. Well sort of. Chahal drags the length back and drifts it wider on seeing the batsman advance, but Chandimal's upto the task. Uses his hands and flat-bats it wide of the bowler
8.2
Chahal to Chandimal, no run, fired flat, Chandimal elicits an inside edge on his pad, as he tries to work that through mid-wicket
8.1
Chahal to Chandimal, no run, top-edge on the cut flying wide of the keeper. Doesn't travel much far, so no run
6.6
Chahal to Chandimal, 2 runs, flatter ball outside off and it's been nicely late-cut behind point. Just the two; there's protection in the deep
6.5
Chahal to Kusal Perera, 1 run, holding on leg-stump, Kusal Perera waits and punches it through mid-wicket
6.4
Chahal to Kusal Perera, 2 runs, misfield by Shankar running in from deep mid-wicket and he's allowed Kusal Perera to get back onto the strike
6.3
Chahal to Kusal Perera, SIX, he's a sight for the sore eyes. No helmet against the spinner, and now he telegenically runs at India's marquee bowler of the night and lofts him over his head
6.2
Chahal to Chandimal, 1 run, uses his feet and drives this bottom-handed past mid-off
6.1
Chahal to Kusal Perera, 1 run, from over the wicket, gets it to straighten on off and middle. Kusal Perera works it through to deep mid-wicket
