The first match of the series last week on Friday had ended in a tie.
While the match highlights included several cricketing moments, led by the six-wicket haul by Sri Lankan legspinner Jeffrey Vandersay (6 for 33), the crowd was also entertained when Virat Kohli showed his dance moves for a brief moment.

Coming to the game, Vandersay turned the tables on India after the visitors started their run-chase of Sri Lanka’s 240 for 9 with a solid opening stand of 97 runs by skipper Rohit Sharma (64) and Shubman Gill (35), but slipped badly to be bowled out for 208.
Besides allrounder Axar Patel’s run-a-ball 44, none of the Indian batters had anwers to the leg-spin of Vandersay, who was ably assisted by skipper Charith Asalanka’s off-spinners that yielded three wickets (3 for 20).
Earlier, after Sri Lanka opted to bat first, Washington Sundar (3 for 30) and Kuldeep Yadav (2 for 33) restricted the hosts to under 250.
Sri Lanka were 136 for 6 at one stage, but a late-order recovery by allrounder Dunith Wellalage (39) and Kamindu Mendis (40) took the hosts to a respectable total.
