Clean sweep for India as Sri Lanka crumble yet again in T20 series

Hindustan Times  

Kolkata: Sri Lanka needed 30 runs from 30 balls with nine wickets in hand but three double-wicket overs from Washington Sundar, Rinku Singh and Suryakumar Yadav pulled off a sensational tied finish before the hosts crumbled again in the Super Over to hand India—who were resting their major players—a clean sweep of the T20I series at Pallekele on Tuesday. Aided by decent contributions from Riyan Parag and Washington Sundar, Shubman Gill tried to steer India to a par total but Sri Lanka kept hitting back on a pitch where spinners Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga were getting considerable purchase. A sweep from new India captain Yadav finally put an end to Sri Lanka’s misery as Gautam Gambhir’s reign as head coach couldn’t have got off to a more dramatic start. As opposed to Sri Lanka who got 58 and 52 runs from the first two stands respectively, India just didn’t get enough partnerships when they were put to bat after a rain-induced delay.
