Asia Cup is a big event and emotions are bound to run high when quality teams face-off against each other. The India-Sri Lanka game is turning out to be quite an intense affair with Sri Lanka bundling out India for 213 and are in with a great chance to quality for the final. The iconic R. Premadasa Stadium is also jam-packed with passionate Lankan fans all behind their team.

India managed to take three early wickets and reduced Sri Lanka to 25 for 3. However, the in-form Sadeera Samarawickrama and Asalanka stitched up a solid partnership that created bit of panic in the Indian camp. To add to India's worries, Asalanka was dropped in the 17th over by Ishan Kishan that clearly frustrated Indian fielders and the skipper Rohit Sharma. However, Kuldeep Yadav, in the very next over produced a ripper that outfoxed Sadeera Samarawickrama to trigger a collapse and brought India back in the game.

How Kuldeep Yadav outfoxed Sadeera Samarawickrana?

Talking about the ball, it was a nicely tossed up delivery, outside off. The flight deceived Sadeera Samarawickrama who danced down the track to hoick it over the fence. He missed it completely as the ball turned and went between his bat and pad to KL Rahul behind the stumps. Rahul quickly whipped off the bails, bringing end to Sadeera's knock and evoking an aggressive celebration from Rohit Sharma at first slip. The Indian skipper's aggressive fist pump showed what it meant for India and their skipper and soon, Sri Lanka were reduced to 99-6 with Kuldeep taking another wicket along with Jadeja.
