Sri Lanka get their breaktrough and it’s the impressive Chamika Karunaratne who gets Rohit Sharma for a 41-ball 72.It’s not the best of balls, short and wide, but Rohit finds the sweeper with his aerial cut. There was little pace to work with as he rolled his fingers over the seam.
It was a special knock not just because of the quality shot-making but also because Rohit dismantled the opponent’s main bowler as well as one who is considered a negative match-up against the Indian captain. Hasaranga kept tossing them up and Rohit was happy to shimmy down and loft, over long and inside-out over extra cover. He picked his spots with surgical precision.
