India vs Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI at WACA

An improved bowling and fielding from the Indian team stifled Sri Lankan batsmen at Perth as they were restricted to 233/8 in the second ODI of CB series on Wednesday.

Dinesh Chandimal (64) top scored for Sri Lanka, hitting the only fifty of the innings, as others got out failing to build on a start. Tillakratne Dilshan started off quickly, finding the odd boundary but it was a controlled bowling effort and sharp fielding from the Indians that kept the pressure on the batsmen. A prime example of this was the bowling powerplay where they gave away only 11 runs.

Meanwhile, Dilshan moved on to 48 runs and was nearing a well deserved fifty when he tried breaking the shackles but in his attempt to cut Jadeja towards point was caught by Virat Kohli.

Similar was the fate of Chandimal when he charged down the track to be stumped by Dhoni off Ashwin’s bowling.
