What about Ajinkya Rahane….? Did Angelo Mathews deserve a wicket on that ball…? No. India needed to put on a decent score to put Sri Lanka under some pressure and for that India needed a solid foundation. But Rahane gave away his wicket after making just three runs of eight balls.
That put pressure on Rohit Sharma and Virat and they took some time to do the damage control. India could manage just 31 runs in the first six overs, its lowest in the batting power play in the tournament.
