Shabbir Husain : "Poor cricket from Sri Lanka. India doing the basics right."

8:31pm For nine overs, Sri Lanka looked on track to go beyond where they did last game. Athapaththu fell to Rana's skill. She then bowled a maiden in the tenth which is what tied up Harshitha Samarawickrama. Harman rotated her bowlers in the middle overs before the flurry of wickets began at the death - 29/6 it was with three run outs. Vaishnavi, who had a missed chance earlier, also got two wickets. We'll be back for the chase soon.

Sandy: ""Buzy day for third umpire tonight." :)"
