2/2 for Indian team in SL. A good collective effort from the bowlers and batsmen ensured that there was no hiccups in the chase. The biggest so far has been Riyan Parag’s bowling. 3 wkts in last game and bowled four overs today. You played well 👏🏼 #SLVIND

It was a good toss to win in the end. 160 would have been a very different game. The boys played.
