18.4

Kavisha Dilhari to Richa Ghosh, SIX, that is muscled! Kavisha Dilhari goes full and fast, but Richa gets into a great position for the slog sweep and crunches it over mid-wicket for a mighty six. It's 4 4 6 since that appeal was turned down

18.3

Kavisha Dilhari to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, Richa now goes over the infield. Mid-off is up so she clears the fielder and almost gets it all the way for six

18.2

Kavisha Dilhari to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, now Richa reverse sweeps and adds to the woes for Sri Lanka. Flighted delivery outside off stump, Richa times it well and gets it through point

Another four by Richa.

INDW 165/6 (20)

CRR: 8.25

Innings Break

This is a very competitive total on the board for India but 166 by no means is a really tough target on this pitch that is pretty decent to bat on. Sri Lanka could have restricted India to a lower total. They bossed the first 4 overs of the powerplay. India were feeling the heat and Smriti tried to up the ante. In the process she was dropped - a sitter at cover - but changed the momentum

Renuka Singh to Chamari Athapaththu, FOUR, Chamari Athapaththu begins in style! The crowd is up on its feet! Back of a length ball slanting across Athapaththu. She stays well-balanced

A disastrous start for SL --

Vastrakar to Vishmi Gunaratne, out Vishmi Gunaratne Run Out!! Vishmi Gunaratne run out (Uma Chetry/Richa Ghosh) 1(3)

Vastrakar to Vishmi Gunaratne, THATS OUT!! Run Out!!

SL 7/1

Renuka Singh to Chamari Athapaththu, FOUR, the SL skipper is switched on! Slightly short on off, Chamari Athapaththu picks the length up in a flash and pulls it with aplomb over mid-wicket

Thanks for the tag

Best wishes to Team India!

INDW 165/6 (20)

SLW 72/1 (9)

CRR: 8 REQ: 8.55

Deepti Sharma to Chamari Athapaththu, THATS OUT!! Bowled!!
