Scorer: Chetan Kumar | Commentator: Srinidhi Ramanujam

That's it from us today. Hope you all enjoyed our coverage. The competition is now wide open after Sri Lanka's win today. Come back after two days for match no.5 between Sri Lanka and South Arica. For now, this is Srinidhi signing off on behalf of Fidel and Chetan. Take care!

Athapaththu: "Actually we are playing positive cricket in the last game and today. I am happy as a captain, youngsters are playing their best cricket. [on winning toss and bowling first] We are ready to bat first too. We will try to score 250+ when we are put in to bat. [on batting down the word] Last two games, I have not been in best form, so we though of trying something differently ahead of the World Cup. [on her bowling] As a senior player, I need to lead from the front, I have been playing cricket for 15 years but didn't bowl a lot. But I am bowling a lot these days. I'm just trying to keep it simple and on the stumps, that's my mantra."

Nilakshika is the player of the match.

Harmanpreet: "Sri Lanka batted really, they didn't give us many opportunities. But when they did, we missed our chances. We were also a bowler short because of Kashvee. But proud of how we fought till the end. The way Richa was batting, we thought we would cross 280,but after her dismissal we couldn't accelerate. Top order has been doing great. Bowling is one aspect we feel we could get breakthroughs, there were chances today also and we didn't get hold of it."

5.25pm: Sri Lanka beat India for the first time in ODIs in seven years and only the third time in 34 attempts! They remained calm under pressure and chased down 276 with five balls to spare. Nilakshika Silva played the crucial knock of 33-ball 56 to change the momentum for Sri Lanka and then Sanjeewani and Sugandika took the team home with their unbroken eighth-wicket stand. There were contributions from the top order too, where Samarawickrama laid the foundation with her fifty but Silva's brisk innings and her partnership of 57 off 38 with Dilhari took the game away from India. Rana was once again the standout bowler for India with three scalps. Kashvee had to limp off the field after bowling just five overs, and that forced Harmanpreet to use Rawal as the sixth bowler. But Sri Lanka were the better side in the last ten overs in both the innings regardless. Asked to bat first, India rode on Ghosh's fifty
