India Vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Asia Cup 2025 Super Four: Nissanka Taking Fight To IND | SL 45/1 (4)

Pathum Nissanka has not let some early movement and Kusal Mendis' early dismissal faze him. The right-handed batter, who appears to be having some difficulty in running, is now hitting the big ones quite cleanly. He has taken a liking to Arshdeep Singh and Harshit Rana, carting the duo for boundaries all over the park alongside Kusal Perera. Game on!

SL 45/1 (4)

Right, let's see what the Lankan batters have got. Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis stride out to open and Hardik Pandya has the ball in hand for India. Nissanka starts with a boundary! He smashes a short and wide delivery through the cover-point region to get the SL innings going.

But Pandya rebounds, getting rid of Kusal Mendis three balls later. Shubman Gill snaps up the edge at slip, and India deal the first blow.

SL 7/1 (0.4)

We will be back after a short break. Stay tuned.

Chameera to Axar Patel – SIX! And India go past the 200-run mark! What a shot! Chameera had been telegraphing his plan all over the over, but Axar reads it perfectly, moves across, and smashes a full toss outside off to cow corner, clearing the rope with ease. The crowd erupts, and even Suryakumar Yadav from the balcony can’t hide his applause.

IND 202/5 (20)

Tilak Varma continues his aggressive knock, scoring 42 off 29 balls, while Axar Patel is steady on 9 off 8. India have lost a couple of wickets in the middle overs, but Varma is holding the innings together with some powerful strokes. The scoreboard is ticking, and India look to accelerate in the final overs.

IND 179/5 (18)

What a sensational effort! Hardik gets a big top-edge off a back-of-a-length delivery, sending the ball soaring between mid-wicket and mid-on. Chameera sprints back, keeps his eyes locked on the ball, and dives forward to take a brilliant two-handed catch. Absolutely top-drawer fielding from the Sri Lankan pacer. Hardik goes for 2 runs.

IND 162/5 (16.1)

What a fantastic catch from the Sri Lankan captain! The partnership is broken as Samson’s lively cameo comes to an end. He steps down the track but misjudges a full delivery, slicing it towards extra cover. Asalanka backtracks, adjusts perfectly, and takes a superb reverse-cup catch over his head. Samson looks furious with himself as he walks back. Samson departs on 39 runs.

IND 158/4 (15.3)

What a recovery! Tilak Varma is timing everything beautifully on 27 off 18, while Sanju Samson adds quickfire 22 off 14. After early setbacks, India are back in control, finding gaps and punishing anything loose. The partnership is keeping the scoreboard ticking, and momentum is firmly with the Men in Blue.

IND 133/3 (13)

Asalanka to Abhishek Sharma, caught by Kamindu Mendis! What a crucial breakthrough for Sri Lanka! That was a half-tracker, and Abhishek looks furious with himself, thudding his bat against his glove as he walks back. He tried to pull it but didn’t get enough of the middle, and Kamindu Mendis, perfectly positioned near deep mid-wicket, takes it comfortably. Gill departs on 61 runs.

IND 92/3 (8.4)

Hasaranga to Suryakumar Yadav – LBW! Plumb decision! The umpire takes a moment, but there’s no doubt, Suryakumar is given out. He looks a bit surprised and decides to review, but it seems unnecessary. Hasaranga flighted it beautifully, Suryakumar goes down for the sweep, but the length is just too full. Brilliant delivery from the Sri Lankan spinner and SKY departs on just 12 runs.

IND 75/2 (7)

Abhishek Sharma is absolutely on fire, smashing a brilliant 52 off just 24 balls, while Suryakumar Yadav is steady on 11 off 10. Sharma is finding the gaps effortlessly, punishing anything loose, and keeping the scoreboard ticking at a rapid pace.

IND 71/1 (6)

Suryakumar Yadav is keeping the strike, scoring 9 off 7, while Abhishek Sharma is looking in fine touch with 27 off 15 balls. India have started positively, rotating the strike well and keeping the scoreboard ticking. Early momentum seems firmly with the batters.

IND 44/1 (4)

What a sensational piece of fielding! Gill tries to drive, but it’s slightly fullish and not exactly in the perfect hitting zone. He middles it, and the ball is heading just to the left of Theekshana. The spinner reacts instantly, dives across, and takes a brilliant two-handed catch. Gill is in shock, freezes for a moment, and then starts his walk back. Gill departs on 4.

IND 15/1 (1.3)

The Dubai pitch favors batsmen, though seamers may find early swing and movement. Spinners can exploit middle overs with turn if disciplined. Dew in the second innings aids batting but hampers grip for spinners. Chasing teams often accelerate, scoring 100+ runs in the last 10 overs.
