11.5
Shanaka to Yuvraj Singh, 1 run, shortish on off stump, pulled round to long leg
11.4
Shanaka to Yuvraj Singh, FOUR, shortish, angling away and offering a lot of width. Yuvraj chases it and slashes it away over backward point
11.3
Shanaka to Yuvraj Singh, no run, full on off stump, driven to mid-on
11.2
Shanaka to Kohli, 1 run, very full outside off, meets it with the full face, angled just so, to push to sweeper cover
11.1
Shanaka to Raina, OUT, length ball on middle and leg, and Shanaka has struck first ball! Looks to step inside the line and hit over mid-off, the ball is a little shorter than he thought, and it hits high on the bat and loops high in the air, and is caught on the juggle by mid-off

SK Raina c Kulasekara b Shanaka 25 (26b 2x4 0x6) SR: 96.15
 

Anirudh: "This is really impressive batting from India. They aren't taking any risks and yet getting 8 runs an over. Hitting the gaps and good running between the wickets: the basics of batting."
