But Rohit Sharma: Coming in as a like-for-like replacement for injured Wanindu Hasaranga, leg-spinner Jeffrey Vandersay shone with a sensational six-wicket haul and powered Sri Lanka to a famous 32-run win over India and went 1-0 up in the three-match series at the R. Premadasa Stadium here on Sunday.

Electing to bat first on a dry pitch offering turn and bounce to spinners, Dunith Wellalage and Kamindu Mendis rescued Sri Lanka’s innings for the second time in as many matches with an inspiring lower-order fightback to post a competitive 240/9.

In reply, India were cruising at 97/0 before things went haywire for the visitors.
