Having lost four wickets inside the PowerPlay, India were waist-deep into trouble when Sri Lanka skipper Dasun Shanaka plucked a screamer to add insult to the tourists’ injuries. Nitish Rana closed the bat face early in his bid to nurdle one towards mid-wicket only to watch Shanaka, the bowler, flying to his left in his follow-through to snare a one-handed blinder. The jaw-dropping effort from the captain skittled India to 36/5, a scoreline that could put a threadbare minnow to shame.
