3rd T20I live: Navdeep Saini finishes it off as India seal big win

WICKET! Lasith Maling, Sri Lanka's captain is the last man to fall. Navdeep Saini picks up 2 wickets in the 16th over. India seal a 78-run win as Sri Lanka get bowled out for 123 in just 15.5 overs.

Dhananjaya de Silva waged a valiant battle for Sri Lanka with a quickfire 57 with support from Angelo Mathews but it was not enough as Sri Lanka were comprehensively outplayed.

Big win for India as they begin the New Year with a bang!

WICKET! Sundar picks up his 2nd wicket

WICKET! Brilliant bowling this from Washington Sundar. He gets Lakshan Sandakan stumped. Sanju Samson with a good bit of glovework. Sundar saw Sandakan advancing and slowed it up to decieve the batsman.

IND vs SL live: Fifty for Dhananjaya de Silva

FIFTY for Dhananjaya de Silva. A fighting effort from the all-rounder. He was dominating the partnership with Angelo Mathews at one point in the game. He gets to the landmark in a little over 30 balls. In the last few minutes, he has been watching his partners come and go in quick succession. Can he give India another scare here?

WICKET! Yuzvendra Chahal with a direct hit

WICKET! Another one bites the dust. Wanidu Hasaranga is run out without troubling the scorers. Yuzvendra Chahal with a direct hit from mid-off. He is elated. Things have been happening in a hurry in Shardul Thakur's overs this series.

WICKET! Shardul gets Shanaka for 9

WICKET! Shardul Thakur gets Dasun Shanaka for 9. Dhananjaya de Silva needed the all-rounder to stay there for a while but he is beaten for pace by Thakur. Easy return catch for the bowler. Is that the end of Sri Lanka's chances?

Chahal continues to leak runs on dewy evening

Dasun Shanaka is now joining the act. With Dhananjay de Silva going great guns at the other end, Shanaka has hit Yuzvendra Chahal for a six in the 13th over.

Chahal has leaked 33 runs in 3 overs. It's a dewy evening in Pune and the leg-spinner has needed the towel more than once in the previous over. Can Sri Lanka make good use of the conditions and get closer to India's total here?
