3rd ODI: India Suffer Disappointing 2-0 Series Loss To Sri Lanka

India vs Sri Lanka 3rd ODI Highlights: Sri Lanka crushed India by 110 runs in the third ODI in Colombo on Wednesday to clinch a commanding 2-0 win in the three-match series. The hosts had earlier won the second ODI by 32 runs after the first ended in a thrilling tie. Chasing 249, India once again began well but crumbled against Sri Lankan spinners as Dunith Wellalage (5.1-0-27-5) led the attack for the island nation with a fine spell. India were bowled out for 138 in 26.1 overs with skipper Rohit Sharma (35) and Washington Sundar (30) waging lone battles. Earlier, all-rounder Riyan Parag took 3 for 54 on debut but Sri Lanka still managed a competitive 248 for 7 riding on Avishka Fernando’s composed 96 and Kusal Mendis’s well-compiled 59. Bowling his off-breaks, Riyan denied Fernando a well-deserved century. His 102-ball innings had nine fours and two sixes. Fernando added 89 runs for the first wicket with Pathum Nissanka (45) and another 82 for the second wicket with Mendis. (Scorecard)
