India A vs Sri Lanka A: Crucial wicket for India
Crucial wicket for India to stay alive in the game. And it is an excellent catch from Ayush Badoni that brings the downfall of Chamika Karunaratne.
Chamika tries to heave Vipraj through the leg side. He has not timed his balls throughout the day, and his desperate try to hit a six and break the shackles results in a wicket.
India need the wicket of Sahan Arachchige to win this game.
India A vs Sri Lanka A Live Score. SL-A (237/6 in 44 overs) chasing 278. Chamika (9), Arachchige (70*).

Sri Lanka thought they were six down, India did too.

The third umpire said not out, leaving Ruturaj Gaikwad visibly frustrated as his protests fell on deaf ears.

IND A vs SL A Live: Huge wickets for India!
Anukul Roy provides two huge breakthroughs for India.
Just when the match was entirely slipping out of India's hands, Anukul strikes with two wickets of Sadeera Samarawickrama and Ravindu Fernando in 34th and 36th overs.
These are like golddust for India.
The first wicket comes in the form of Samarawickrama, who tries to hit a six, but ends up depositing the ball into the hands of Suryansh Shedge at long on.
And like it has happened in this innings, one brings two, as Ravindu chips the ball straight to the bowler in the 5th ball of his innings.
Is there a comeback for India from here? Tilak Varma would hope so. India need wickets here, more of them.…
