It was Yuzvendra Chahal, who finally sent back a good looking Tharanga (47 off 29) in the 14th over while Perera, who played a quickfire cameo of 37-ball 77 runs, was too dismissed by Kuldeep Yadav in the next over. After this, the visitors couldn't even show a fighting spirit and the entire team was warapped up at 172 runs.For India, Chahal and Kuldeep bagged four and three wickets respectively. (UNI)
