SL vs IND 2024, SL vs IND 2nd ODI Match Report, August 04, 2024

Sri Lanka were desperate to go one better, they finally did, and their hero wasn’t even part of their original squad. Jeffrey Vandersay, a man who had made his debut in December 2015 but only played 22 ODIs before this one, a legspinner for long consigned to understudy status, was only called into the squad on the eve of this match thanks to Wanindu Hasaranga’s hamstrings. And Vandersay ripped through the heart of India’s batting, taking out Rohit, Shubman Gill, Shivam Dube, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul in the space of 29 balls from his end as 97 for no loss became 147 for 6.
