Dunith Wellalage: Sri Lankan spinner rattles Team India with 5-fer | India vs Sri Lanka, Asia Cup 2023

While Indian captain Rohit Sharma hit yet another ODI fifty, the rest of the batters failed on a track that aided the Lankan spinners.

Dunith Wellalage: Sri Lankan spinner rattles Team India with 5-fer | India vs Sri Lanka,  Asia Cup 2023

Dunith Wellalage was the star of the show for Sri Lanka, bamboozling the Indian batters on a spin-friendly wicket.

The Indians were cruising at 80 for no loss at the start of the match, with captain Rohit Sharma scoring yet another quickfire fifty, and becoming the second-fastest batter to complete 10,000 ODI runs along with it.

However, Wellalage picked up a wicket off his very first ball to kickstart the procession. Kohli and Rohit too perished soon after, and while KL Rahul and Ishan Kishan got a partnership going, Wellalage returned to send both of them back.

The 20-year-old completed his quota of 10 overs just the way he started it, picking up a wicket off his final ball to complete a dream 5-wicket haul.

Part-timer Charith Asalanka then piled more misery on the Indians, managing to take 4 lower-order wickets in quick succession to restrict India to 213-all out.
