Speaking of the match so far, the Islanders are batting first after losing the toss and have posted a total of 206 runs for the loss of six wickets in the allotted 20 overs. Skipper Dasun Shanaka has smashed his half-century off just 20 balls in the last over of the first innings. Shanaka ended up in the first innings with a brilliant six on the last ball of the 20^th over scoring 56 runs off just 22 balls with two boundaries and six sixes to his name. Earlier in the innings, Opener and wicketkeeper-batter Kusal Mendis also played a half-century knock of 52 runs alongside a 37-run-knock by Charith Asalanka.

Apart from Umran Malik's three wickets, Yuzvendra Chahal and Axar Patel scalped 1 and 2 wickets respectively for India.

Now, the men in blue need 207 run in 20 overs to take an unassailable lead of 2-0 in the three-match T20I series against Dasun Shanka’s men.
