Karunaratne taps the last ball to point for a single. Rajitha manages to work the 1st ball to midwicket for a single and more importantly bring Karunaratne on strike. Rajitha drives the last ball to long-on for a run. Karunaratne leaves the 2nd ball and wants a wide, but the umpire isn’t interested. I use the matchups really well and that's the reason we restricted India to 162. Player of the Match: I try my best to practice according to the number I bat.

IND vs SL: Bumrah was out of action since September 2022 and was also ruled out of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup due to a back injury.

Bumrah missed the Asia Cup after developing a stress reaction ahead of the tournament. Bumrah had resumed bowling in the nets since late November and has been gradually increasing his workload ever since. Bumrah had been sidelined since last September due to a stress reaction in back.

But Karunaratne couldn't get the job done as Rajitha and Madushanaka were run out to see Sri Lanka get all out for 160 runs and India took a 1-0 lead. Mavi would pick up his fourth wicket in the form of Theekshana as Sri Lanka's hopes started to fade. Kishan got to 37 runs but he was dismissed by Hasaranga with the score at 77 for four. However, Sri Lanka bounced back quickly as Mahesh Theekshana dismissed Shubman Gill, with just 27 runs on the board. Shivam Mavi impressed on his debut as he picked up four wickets for just 22 runs in his four overs. Sri Lanka won the toss in the match and put India to bat first.

Pacers Umran Malik and Harshal Patel also starred with two wickets each and ensured Sri Lanka did not build a long partnership.

Debutant Shubman Gill began with a boundary but soon fell lbw for seven to Maheesh Theekshana as the mystery spinner broke through in his first over. Earlier in the match, cameos by Deepak Hooda and Axar Patel steered India to 162-5 after Sri Lanka’s bowlers made an impression. India won by 2 runs against Sri Lanka to seal a thrilling encounter in the first Twenty20 International at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai on Tuesday.

Hardik said he would have batted anyway because India wanted to challenge themselves in bilateral games.

It seemed all over with 29 required off the last two with two wickets in hand, but Harshal bowled an ordinary 19th over to let Sri Lanka back. When Hasaranga joined him with two successive slog-swept sixes off Yuzvendra Chahal in the 14th over, Sri Lanka were well and truly back with 56 needed off the last six. Kasun Rajitha and Madushanka closed out well but India managed 34 off the last three. Two curious events happened around the last ball of the 19th over. Hasaranga had one over at the death, and Hooda managed to pull one six off him too as he went flatter to get out of that over. Kishan got them off to a rollicking start, taking 26 off the first two overs, but then the masters went to work. Probably looking to get out of the spell, Theekshana dragged down an attempted wrong'un in the 16th over. Eventually Kishan, who had gone from 17 off 8 to 36 off 27, felt the need to slog-sweep everything. This seam-up delivery had come on slowly off the surface. Gill picked a carrom ball, but it landed on the leather to skid on with the angle to trap him lbw. Hooda and Axar then added 68 in 5.5 overs to take India to 162. On the same pitch, India found assistance for fast bowlers with Hardik Pandya joining debutant

Bumrah has been out of action because of a stress reaction in his back but his recovery has gone satisfactorily, according to the BCCI.

Bumrah's rehab and recovery report is believed to have been discussed at the BCCI's performance review meeting on Monday, leading to a change in stance regarding selection. Bumrah was subsequently ruled out of the 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia, where India lost to England in the semi-finals. "The pacer has undergone rehabilitation and has been declared fit by the NCA," the BCCI said in a statement.

Shanaka scored 45 from 27 deliveries and ensured his side remains in the hunt. The duo hit four boundaries and five maximums. But, jokes apart, he was very effective at the start and applied brakes on the Sri Lankan powerplay. He is willing to open the experiment lab for this purpose. The right-hander scored 23 runs from 16 balls. Popular gadgets including laptop, tablet and mobile specifications, features, prices, comparison. A target of 161, which would have been thought of as below par at the Wankhede Stadium was made to look like a mountain of runs by the Indian bowling attack. More importantly, he hit two sixes – one each in the 19th and 20th over – and brought his side closer to the target. He later confirmed at the presentation that he has been practicing in the nets with the new ball and that is why he tried to bowl upfront.

Not to forget Sri Lanka’s efforts as the bowlers hunted in pack and restricted India for such a total in first place.

Bumrah's presence in ODI squad means the team will get enough time and opportunity to settle their XI ahead of World Cup in October.

He was subsequently ruled out of the T20 World Cup in Australia. However, the manner of his return is being debated upon since there is a feeling that he should have been made to play a Ranji Trophy match before being rushed into international cricket. Once the NCA gave him the clearance following long spells, the outgoing national selection committee decided to include Bumrah in the squad.
