IND vs SL: Dhawan guide India to another series win
India chasing lost skipper for just 14 runs but Shikhar Dhawan and youngster Shreyas Iyer steered the ship. Shreyas playing in his 3rd ODI continued his magnificent form, smashing his consecutive fifty off 44 but was caught at mid-on by Suranga Lakmal.
In the final home series, India came out victorious as they thumped Sri Lanka and denied their first series win in India in a long time.
Batting first Sri Lanka started the match brilliantly but collapsed when it mattered the most. Apart from Upul Tharanga (95) and Sadeera (42) others failed to make any major contribution, eventually ending the innings with 215 runs on the board.
That's it and that's a wrap. #TeamIndia do it in style and win the series 2-1 #INDvSL pic.twitter.com/ftYwFqSNYQ
