Kawya Kavindi to Harmanpreet Kaur, FOUR, dropped! Sri Lanka not doing well under pressure. Full and slanted across, Harmanpreet access the off-side field this time and lofts it towards deep extra cover. She didn't get the distance and the fielder in the deep moves to her left, tries to take it reverse cup but the ball burst through her hands, bounces before crossing the rope

Kawya Kavindi to Harmanpreet Kaur, SIX, that's more like it. Angled across the right hander, Harmanpreet stays deep in the crease and brings the long levers into play, heaves across the line and clears deep mid-wicket

Kavisha Dilhari to Richa Ghosh, SIX, 6, 6, 4, 6! Richa on fire. That's why you don't drop her catch. She's hurting Sri Lanka big time. Another flighted delivery that lands right in Richa's arc, she is very good down the ground and that's where the ball ends up. Massive over for India, 23 runs

Kavisha Dilhari to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, this is incredible batting. Dilhari overcorrects her length - drops it short outside off, Richa stays put in her crease, waits for the ball and cracks it past a diving cover-point. The fielder in the deep was pretty straight and had no chance of stopping that
18.4
6
Kavisha Dilhari to Richa Ghosh, SIX, back to back sixes. Now Dilhari offers width outside off, Richa has the space to free her hands - she bends her back knee and smokes it straight down the ground
18.3
6
Kavisha Dilhari to Richa Ghosh, SIX, massive! Flighted up around off, it was right in her zone and Richa has no second measures, lofts through the line and sends it sailing over long-on. 82-meter maximum..
18.2
Kavisha Dilhari to Richa Ghosh, no run, Sri Lanka lose the review. Excellent decision from umpire Ankita Guha. Tossed up leg-break, Richa sits down to play the reverse sweep and plays all over it, misses and is struck around the ribs and ball-tracking shows it to be bouncing over
17.5
Nimasha Madushani to Richa Ghosh, 1 run, dropped! That's a sitter and a big miss because Richa can be lethal in these death overs. Flighted outside off, Richa makes room and does not get under the length, mistimes the loft and Shehani comes in from long-off, gets both hands but does not hang on
17.2
4
Nimasha Madushani to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, that's a poor delivery. Full toss outside off, Richa backs away and throws her bat on the drive, slices it behind square and splits the two fielders - backward point and short third perfectly
17.1
4
Nimasha Madushani to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, tossed up and drifts in, right in the arc for Richa and she heaves it towards wide long-on. Not quite off the middle but she evades the fielder and almost clears the rope
16.1
W
Malsha Shehani to Smriti, out Caught by Imesha Dulani!! Both openers gone in successive overs. Sri Lanka fighting back. Flighted delivery, Shehani keeps the line outside off, Smriti shuffles across and has to fetch the sweep, gets a top-edge over backward square leg and Maisha takes a few steps back, keeps her eyes on the ball and clings on. That was a good catch. The set batters are gone and Sri Lanka have a chance to finish strongly. Smriti c Imesha Dulani b Malsha Shehani 80(48) [4s-11 6s-3]
15.4

Nimasha Madushani to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, she's done having a sighter. Sees the flighted delivery and brings the long levers out, good flow of the bat and she smashes it straight down the ground, one bounce and over the ropes
15.2
W
Nimasha Madushani to Shafali Verma, out Caught&Bowled!! Gone! Sri Lanka have broken the partnership. Some respite for them. Shafali has been finally dismissed after being unbeaten in the previous two games. She moves around in the crease before staying put and trying to work it into the leg-side, the ball hits the splice of the bat and pops it straight back, Madushani holds her nerve and hangs on. A fine knock comes to an end. Shafali Verma c and b Nimasha Madushani 79(46) [4s-12 6s-1]
15.1

Nimasha Madushani to Shafali Verma, FOUR, lovely shot! Madushani is bowling from over the wicket, darts it full and across the right hander, Shafali steps down and makes room to play the inside out drive, drills it past extra cover and there's no stopping that
14.3
6
Kawya Kavindi to Smriti, SIX, whoa! That's an incredible shot. Smriti walks down the pitch and is met by a shortened length, but she adjusts quickly and nails the pull over wide long-on. Even skipper Harmanpreet enjoyed it in the dugout..
14.2
Kawya Kavindi to Shafali Verma, 1 run, good length ball around off, Shafali sits down and swipes it to long-on
13.3
4
Malsha Shehani to Smriti, FOUR, she's toying with the field. Square leg was brought into the circle, so Smriti moves across and gets under the shortish length, pulls it over backward square and picks up another boundary
13.2
4
Malsha Shehani to Smriti, FOUR, Smriti is now matching Shafali shot for shot. Makes room and gets under the flighted delivery, lofts it inside out in front of square and pierces the packed off-side field. It was in the air but in the gap
13
6
Chamari Athapaththu to Smriti, SIX, 18 runs from the over. How beautifully Smriti has upped the ante. She was on 37 from 32. But her next 7 balls have yielded 26 runs. She steps down the wicket, stays leg-side and gives herself the space to open her arms, lofts it towards long-on and clears the rope comfortably
12.5
4
Chamari Athapaththu to Smriti, FOUR, boundaries flowing from both ends.. Why not! They have all 10 wickets in hand. Smriti dances down the wicket, takes it on the full and lofts it straight back over Athapaththu, one bounce and over the ropes
12.2
4
Chamari Athapaththu to Shafali Verma, FOUR, what power! Shafali comes down the track, converts it into a low full toss and uses her bottom hand to drill it past Smriti. There was long-on in place but the fielder had no chance of getting across
11.5
F
Rashmika Sewwandi to Smriti, FOUR, fifty for Smriti. She missed out in the first three games but has looked her best today. Once again shimmies down the wicket, gives herself room and lofts it over mid-off. Not quite off the middle and hence the ball does not travel the distance
11.4
6
Rashmika Sewwandi to Smriti, SIX, shot! Looks like even Smriti has decided to put her foot down. Fullish delivery around leg, Smriti kneels down to get under the length and slog sweeps it over deep square leg. It was the slower ball and hence Smriti was able to play that shot
11.3
4
Rashmika Sewwandi to Smriti, FOUR, that's a gift which Smriti accepts happily. Steps down and is presented a nice full toss, she does not try to do anything fancy - lifts it straight down the ground and picks up the boundary
11.1
4
Rashmika Sewwandi to Shafali Verma, leg byes, FOUR, half an appeal for LBW. Shafali walks down the pitch and yorks herself, misses the flick and is struck on the pad. The ball deflects to the right of the keeper and runs away. The angle was taking it down leg
10.5
Nimasha Madushani to Shafali Verma, 1 run, flatter delivery at the stumps, Shafali makes room and punches it to extra cover
10.4
4
Nimasha Madushani to Shafali Verma, FOUR, unlucky! Fired outside off, Shafali reaches fo the big shot and does not get any bat. The ball keeps drifting away and gives the keeper no chance as well. But the umpire has given it as runs.. Shafali won't be complaining
10.3
6
Nimasha Madushani to Shafali Verma, SIX, there's the first six. You can expect her to step on the accelerator even more. Shimmies down, gives herself the room to free the hands and launches it over long-off
10.1
F
Nimasha Madushani to Shafali Verma, FOUR, hat-trick of fifties for Shafali. She has been in terrific form since making her return to the ODI squad during the World Cup. She just failed in the opening game and hasn't been dismissed since in this series. Coming to the ball: Fraction short and Shafali is quick to pounce, rocks back and pulls it in front of square, splitting the two fielders in the deep expertly
9.2
