Sri Lanka v India Live: Team India suffers batting collapse in Colombo

Opting to bat first, Team India suffered an incredible collapse and were bundled out for just  225 runs in the rain-affected first innings of the last ODI against Sri Lanka.  After the rain interruption, the Dasun Shanaka-led came out all guns blazing in what is now a 47-over-a-side fixture.

The batting duo of Manish Pandey and Suryakumar Yadav tried to steady the Indian ship but Sri Lanka spinners came into the attack and played a major role in the Indian collapse. The visitors lost 7 wickets for just 68 runs as they were reduced from 157-3 to 225 all-out. With just 226 runs to chase, it remains to be seen how Indian bowlers will execute their plans.
