Here’s a look at some top funny and hilarious memes from India vs Sri Lanka 2nd T20I:

Talking about the entire action of the match, the visitors got a strong foundation of 80 runs for the first wicket between Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendia. The former fell prey to Axar Patel in the ninth over of the first innings with an individual score of 33 runs. Whereas, Mendis scored 52 runs off 31 runs with three boundaries and four sixes to his name.

Mendis’ half-century was followed by the 37-run knock by Charith Asalanka and a brilliant responsible knock of 56 runs by skipper Dasun Shanka himself off just 22 balls with two boundaries and six massive sixes on his credit.

The star pacer Umran Malik scalped three wickets in his spell of four overs. Other than him, Yuzvendra Chahal and Axar Patel also scalped one and two wickets respectively.

While chasing the target, the Indian team crumbled when they lost five wickets only on the score of 57 runs in 9.1 overs. But then came an amazing 91-run stand for the sixth wicket between star Indian all-rounder Axar Patel and World number one T20I batter Suryakumar Yadav igniting some light on the dead hopes of the Indian camp.  Suryakumar Yadav missed a chance and got caught by Wanindu Hasaranga in Dilshan Madhushanka’s over. The 32-year-old scored 51 runs with three boundaries and the same number of sixes on his credit.

Eventually, the Sri Lankan skipper Dasun Shanaka took the charge himself in the last over and restricted the hosts to the score of 190 runs for the loss of eight wickets to win the match for Sri Lanka.

The visitors’ skipper also won the ‘player of the match award for his outstanding all-round performance against India in an all-important second T20I for the Sri Lankan team.
