0.1 Interestingly, Hardik Pandya starts the proceedings. More interestingly, Patthum Nissanka has been caught plumb and the umpire has given him out! No bat involved either as the batter reviews the umpire’s call. Ahh, the wickets are missing and Nitin Menon’s decision will be reversed.

Suryakumar Yadav I’m really happy with the way the innings went. Captain winning the toss and batting first showed faith in the batters. Few shots are pre-determined, but these are the shots I’ve been playing over the last year and I’m not doing anything different. The 2022 form is gone, it’s a fresh start in 2023 and I hope to continue doing well. It’s a good pitch, a nice bounce, and a lush outfield.

Can Sri Lanka chase the mammoth 229-run target? Sri Lanka have never won a series in India – be it T20I, ODIs, or Tests. If they chase this total today, Dasun Shanaka and his men will register themselves in the history books. Hardik Pandya and the Indian bowlers now have the task of defending the total and simultaneously also defending their winning streak. Second innings is moments away as Indian huddle has dissolved after a brief discussion.
