India and Sri Lanka clashed in a thrilling Super Four encounter at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Batting first, India posted a competitive total of 202 runs. Despite the early loss of Shubman Gill, Abhishek Sharma anchored the innings with a brilliant 61, supported by Tilak Varma and Sanju Samson’s middle-over contributions. Late wickets from Chaminda Chameera added pressure, but Axar Patel’s last-ball six ensured India crossed the 200-run mark, setting a challenging target for Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka’s chase was powered by Pathum Nissanka, who scored his maiden T20I century, and Kusal Perera, as the pair added 127 runs and put India under pressure. Boundaries flowed freely, and at one stage, Sri Lanka looked in command. However, India struck back through key breakthroughs by Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakaravarthy, curbing momentum and creating tension in the final overs.

The match went down to the wire, with Sri Lanka needing three off the last ball to win, taking the contest into a Super Over. Arshdeep Singh bowled a perfect Super Over, conceding just two runs, while India chased it comfortably to clinch a dramatic victory. Despite Nissanka’s stellar century, India survived the scare, maintained their unbeaten record, and now head into the final as strong favorites. On the other hand, Sri Lanka have already been eliminated from the tournament.
