India vs Sri Lanka Live Score Asia Cup Super 4: IND’s top three shredded to pieces by Wellalage

India vs Sri Lanka Live Score Asia Cup Super 4 : Dunith Wellalage has dented IND’s good start with the big wickets of Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli.

India vs Sri Lanka Live Score Asia Cup Super 4: India won the toss and chose to bat first as the weather remained nice and sunny in the minutes leading up to the start of the match. Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill have opened for India, Rohit eventually became the second fastest batter to 10,000 ODI runs in typical fashion, hitting a six over the bowler’s head with a sumptuous shot. He also surpassed Shahid Afridi’s record for most sixes in the Asia Cup. India lost their first wicket in the 12th over with Dunith Wellalage dismissing Shubman Gill with his first ball of the match. He then dismissed Virat Kohli, thus denying the former India captain a fifth consecutive century at the R Premadasa Stadium.

India have been immersed in non-stop cricket action since Sunday. Their match against Pakistan, which commenced at 3pm IST on Sunday, finally concluded at 10.55pm on Monday, thanks to persistent rain interruptions. Less than 16 hours later, they find themselves gearing up for their next Asia Cup Super 4 match against Sri Lanka, with hopes pinned on favourable weather conditions in Colombo and the tireless efforts of the ground staff. This unique sequence of events is without precedent in many ways but India have decided to retain KL Rahul and Jasprit Bumrah, who have both come back from long term injuries and played a major role in India’s record win against Pakistan on Monday.

Meanwhile, Sri Lanka face a significant challenge. A victory against India would all but secure their place in the final. However, a loss would catapult India into the final, compelling Sri Lanka to confront a virtual knockout clash against Pakistan.

      Dunith Wellalage with his first ball! Angling into middle stump and flighted, it dips just as it reaches the batter. Gill seems to play for the turn but it doesn’t, it goes past him as he falls over and knocks the off stump. What a delivery that is, Gill completely deceived by it.

      Rohit Sharma gets to 10,000 ODI runs with the most sumptuous of shots! He has also gone past Shahid Afridi’s record for most sixes in the Asia Cup, with this one being his 27th. Good length delivery for the fifth of the seventh from Rajitha.

      Well India have effectively got six runs off the third ball of the seventh over. Rajitha goes down the leg side and the keeper stands no chance first up, it goes to the boundary. The second time the keeper does get it but it is wide down the leg side nonetheless.

      Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 Live Score: FOUR! Great timing and a misfield

      Shanaka strays on Rohit’s pads for the second last ball of the 6th over and the Indian captain nails the timing on his flick. Charith Asalanka seems to have got to it at the boundary but the ball pops out of his hands as he rolls after diving and darts over the boundary.

      Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 Live Score: Steady start for India

      Just the one boundary thus far in the first three overs, which is quite different from what was the case against Pakistan. However, it has to be noted singles and doubles have come easily for the two batters because of which Rohit is on 9 off 13 while Gill is on four off five.

      IND vs SL Live score: India’s lineup

      So, India have chosen to keep Rahul and Bumrah in the XI while they are hot. They also have a deeper batting lineup, Axar Patel is a far more sure bet with the bat than Shardul Thakur, despite the latter’s tendency to do utterly, ridiculously, extraordinary things right when you think that all is lost. On top of all that, Sri Lanka will have to deal with potentially 30 overs of high class spin bowling. At least on paper, there are going to be no honeymoon phases for them in their innings.

      Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 Live Score: What Rohit Sharma said

      “We are going to have a bat. That’s the challenge you come across as a sportsman, different challenges thrown at you as a player and as a team. We ensured everyone got into the pool after the game last night. They are fresh as we had five days off before these two games. Last game was good for us, we batted well and then came out to defend the total with some good bowling. But again this is a new day and a fresh game. The pitch looks different, looks a lot drier and there’s no grass and hence we bring in Axar for Shardul. It might assist the spinners but we also have three quality pacers.”

      MS Dhoni’s legacy is obviously has largely been to the benefit of Indian cricket but such is his impact on players that foreign players in CSK have also improved under him. Today, India will come up against that part of Dhoni’s legacy that would hurt them. Matheesha Pathirana and Mahesh Theekshana have been players transformed after their two-year stint with CSK and they have been the driving force of Sri Lanka’s unbeaten run in this tournament.

      IND vs SL Live score: No Hasaranga no problem for Sri Lanka

      Sri Lanka were unbeaten since the World Cup qualifiers but they came into this Asia Cup as a rather depleted side. For one, their biggest star Wanindu Hasaranga was ruled out with injury. As were Dushmantha Chameera (pectoral tear), Dilshan Madushanka (oblique tear), and Lahiru Kumara (side strain). And yet, they have gone about their business almost as if they are missing no one, with a different player putting their hand up in each match.

      Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 Live Score: Preserving Hardik Pandya

      The three matches India have played in the Asia Cup have also been a demonstration of just how important Hardik Pandya is for their cause in the World Cup. He bailed India out with the bat in the first match against Pakistan. Then he bowled seven overs against Nepal and broke a good partnership by dismissing Dipendra Singh Airee and yesterday, he bowled five intense overs and took the all-important wicket of Babar Azam. There is a chance that India might choose to rest him and maybe let Axar Patel or Shardul Thakur get some overs and runs today.

      India vs Sri Lanka Live Score: Could SKY be given a go again?

      KL Rahul had a busy day yesterday. Apart from that whirlwind partnership with Kohli in which the pair ran the Pakistan fielders to the ground in addition to hitting boundaries, Rahul also kept wickets for all but the first few overs of the Pakistan innings. It isn’t too far-fetched to think that he might be rested after all that considering that was only his first match on returning from a long-term injury. Conversely, one could also imagine the Indian management thinking that Rahul is hot right now and should not be rested. Instead he can be given more game time as a wicketkeeper and so Ishan Kishan could be dropped. Either way, if India feel tempted to give Suryakumar Yadav another go, either Rahul or Kishan will have to be excluded from the team.

      India vs Sri Lanka Live Score: Gambhir on Kohli winning player of the match vs Pakistan

      Virat Kohli had won the player of the match for his century against Pakistan but Gautam Gambhir disagreed with that. “For me, it’s Kuldeep Yadav. Can’t look beyond him. I know Virat got a hundred KL (Rahul) got a hundred. Rohit (Sharma), Shubman Gill got fifties but on a wicket like this where it was seaming swinging, if someone get five wickets in 8 overs, especially against Pakistan batters, who play spin really well, is a game-changing moment. I can understand if it was Australia, South Africa or New Zealand because they don’t play spin that well. This just shows the quality of the bowler. He beat batters in the air and he beat batters off the wicket as well. Going into the World Cup, that is great for Indian cricket because now you have two attacking pacers upfront and Kuldeep… Three bowlers who can take wickets at any stage of the game,” Gambhir said.

      India vs Sri Lanka Live Score: Kohli’s love story with Colombo

      With his century yeterday, Kohli became just the second batter after South Africa great Hashim Amla to have scored tons in four consecutive ODIs at the same venue. Remember that India are playing at the same venue today and if Kohli does play in this, Sri Lanka would be quite weary of letting him have second or third chances the way Pakistan did. Kohli’s stats at the R Premadasa are just mind boggling – in nine ODIs that he has played at the stadium, Kohli has scored 641 at a mind-boggling average of 128.20 and strike rate of 99.84. He holds the record for most centuries at the venue jointly with Sanath Jayasuriya and Sachin Tendulkar.

      There was a point in Star Sports’ broadcast show yesterday where Waqar Younis pointed out that no one in the studio is talking about Kuldeep Yadav as far as India’s most potent weapons go. Sure enough, Kuldeep went on to take five wickets and decimated Pakistan, allowing India to run off to a 228-run win. Kuldeep is named in the World Cup squad and he has been in sensational form in recent months in both ODIs and T20Is.

      IND vs SL Live score: Could India rest players?

      India have never been a team to shy away from resting their big players. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have had multiple “rest” periods over the course of the last three years. The pair have been “rested” from T20Is since the last T20 World Cup. Jasprit Bumrah has been rested multiple times in the past as well. With the World Cup later this year being the real priority for the team, they might just consider resting Bumrah at least and perhaps even someone like Kohli or Rahul considering all of these players had fairly heavy workloads yesterday. The fact that today’s play could be heavily interrupted by rain, is another factor that could lead to that decision.

      Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 Live Score: Bumrah’s blockbuster opening spell

      Among the features of India’s runaway win over Pakistan yesterday was Jasprit Bumrah spitting fire in his opening salvo. He had openers Fakhar Zaman and Imam-ul-Haq dancing to his tunes, eventually providing India with the breakthrough by dismissing the latter in the fifth over which ended up being a wicket-maiden. Bumrah had made his comeback from a year-long spell on the sidelines due to injury in the T20I series against Ireland last month but this was the first time he had taken up an ODI workload and he excelled. It remains to be seen how he has held up after that though.

      India vs Sri Lanka Live Score: Rohit on the SL groundsmen

      The groundsmen at the R Premadasa Stadium were extraordinary in the way they covered nearly every inch of the ground almost every time it rained. It was their intuition that ensured that the outfield remained dry yesterday as they covered up the ground well before the heavy rains came around. Rohit Sharma acknowledged their contribution. “We just wanted to get out on the park to get some game time. A lot of guys haven’t had that. That could happen only thanks to a great effort from the groundsmen. I know how tough it is to cover and remove covers from the whole ground. On behalf of the entire team, I would like to thank them,” he said.

He will be playing his 241st innings today and his teammate Virat Kohli, obviously, had got to 10,000 ODI runs in just 205 innings. He would be jumping past the likes of Sachin Tendulkar (259 innings), Sourav Ganguly (263), Ricky Ponting (266), Jacques Kallis (272), MS Dhoni (273) and Brian Lara (278).

      There are quite a few records that the Indian captain could upend today, starting with Shahid Afridi’s record for most sixes in the history of the Asia Cup. Afridi had hit 26 maximums and Rohit equalled that during his innings against Pakistan on Sunday. He is also 10 sixes away from equalling Chris Gayle’s record for most sixes by a player in the history of international cricket.

He runs really hard for his and his partner’s runs. Communication is good with him, we have both been in these situations before. Initially he gave me some time for the quick singles, I had asked for it because I needed to feel comfortable with my own body. He was doing what he does best which gave me time to get into the game and I started playing my shot.,” said Rahul after the match yesterday

And then KL, last minute to get back from injury and play 5 minutes before the toss. We told him to get ready. Shows the mindset of the player. Looking at how we batted, there were lots of positives with the openers and then Virat and KL. Fantastic performance, right from yesterday. When we started, we knew the wicket was good and we had to adjust with the rain, The two experienced (Kohli and Rahul) guys we knew they’d take time to get their eye in and then we could get going,” India captain said in a post-match presentation.

      IND vs SL Live score: ‘Manager had to run to the hotel and get my stuff’

      Ishan Kishan had made it utterly impossible for the Indian team to drop him based on his brilliant form in ODIs this year. Shreyas Iyer had made the No.4 spot his own before his long injury layoff. And so, it is difficult to blame Rahul when he says that he had not expected to play at all. Moreover, had he been ready for that, it wouldn’t have given us the comedy of imagining the Indian team manager out of breath in the dressing room with Rahul’s kit and gear, probably holding back a few choice curse words for the star batter as well. How do we know all this happened? Well, Rahul said it himself after the match.

      “Five minutes before the toss, Rahul bhai came and told me that I might have to play because Shreyas got a back spasm. And I had not brought any batting gear, did not get my batting t-shirts, or skins. I had come only knowing that I would be carrying water and had brought only one full-sleeved t-shirt, so, at the last minute, the manager had to run to the hotel and get my stuff. But this has not happened for the first time so mentally, I know what to do when I am thrown in the ring,” he said.

The last match between these two is especially one that Dasun Shanaka’s men would love to delete from their collective memories. India scored a whopping 390/5 with Virat Kohli scoring an unbeaten 166 off 110 and Shubman Gill scoring 116 off 97. In response, Sri Lanka were all out for 73 with Mohammed Siraj taking four wickets. India won the match by an eye-watering margin of 317 runs. Talk about a decimation.

He was already the fastest to 8000, 9000, 10,000, 11,000 and 12,000 ODI runs as well. He is also now just two centuries away from equalling Sachin Tendulkar’s record of 49 ODI centuries.

As he does most of the time, Kohli accelerated after that and soon, he scored his 47th ODI century in just 84 balls. If all that wasn’t enough, he ended the Indian innings with a four off a no ball, a four off the free hit and then a six off the last ball. Kohli finished off unbeaten on 122 off 94 having hit nine fours and three sixes.

      IND vs SL Live score: KL Rahul’s comeback

      KL Rahul’s waning form in T20s and Tests had led to a number of questions on why he should be given an automatic spot in the ODIs, which basically stated that people had forgotten just how many times he had bailed India out in the No.5 position. On Sunday, he walked in at No.4 and paired up with Virat Kohli just when it looked like Pakistan were on the rise. Rahul paced his innings expertly, aggressive enough in the beginning on the reserve day to throw Pakistan off their lines and then slowing or hastening his strike rate when required. He ended up scoring unbeaten 111 off 106 deliveries, his innings laced with 12 fours and two sixes.

      Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 Live Score: Question mark over Iyer

      Rohit had said that Shreyas Iyer has suffered a back spasm because of which he was not available for selection against Pakistan. It is highly unlikely that he will return for this match, especially considering KL Rahul came in and scored a century in that position. There are no details on the injury that Iyer is suffering apart from what Rohit said at the toss, which is that he suffered from back spasms just before the game. It was Iyer’s back that forced him to sit out in a long injury break for all these months and so the fact that it has acted up again might be a cause of worry for the Indians.
