But in the very first over, Siraj gave India a good breakthrough and took the first wicket. Then in the eighth over, Manav Suthar took the second wicket and again gave a shock to the Sri Lankan team. Gill expressed his intentions by taking a tremendous catch. Team India will certainly try to chase down the Sri Lankan team today and the Indian cricket team is all set to pocket this match.
