Despite losing KL Rahul and Virat Kohli early, Team India skipper Rohit Sharma dominated the Sri Lanka bowlers registering his first half-century of the tournament. He was eventually dismissed for 72 runs off 41 balls. Rohit had the backing of Suryakumar Yadav (34 off 29 balls) as the duo put up 97 run stand for the third wicket.

Sri Lankans started their run chase in positive fashion with openers Kusal Mendis (57 off 37 balls) and Pathum Nissanka (52 off 37 balls) putting on 91 runs for the opening wicket. Leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal struck twice in the 12th over to slow down Sri Lanka's scoring rate. Ravichandran Ashwin dismissed Danushka Gunathilaka on just 1 run to leave Sri Lanka on the rocks at 110 for three. Chahal later provided a major breakthrough by trapping Mendis, in front of the wicket. Needing 21 in 12 balls, Sri Lanka, in a dramatic fashion, scored 14 runs off the penultimate over bowled by Bhuvneshwar Kumar, almost sealing it in their favour. Sri Lanka skipper Dasun Shanaka remained unbeaten on 33 runs, while Bhanuka Rajapaksa stayed unfazed on 25 runs. However, it is pertinent to note that India will be out of the tournament if Pakistan beat Afghanistan on Wednesday.
