In the 3rd T20I, India beat Sri Lanka Cricket Team in the Super Over

On Tuesday at Pallekele, in the inconsequential third and final T20I, India defeated Sri Lanka via the Super Over to sweep the series 3–0. Kusal Perera (46, 34b) and Kusal Mendis (43, 41b) helped team Sri Lanka chase down the target of 138 before their innings fell apart in the familiar fashion at the business end. 

SL ended up at 137 runs for the loss of 8 wickets after stipulated 20 overs, taking the match to Super Over. For India, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Rinku Singh, and captain Suryakumar Yadav took two wickets apiece. India needed just three runs to win the Super Over.

Earlier, the Lankan bowlers produced a tidy effort to restrict India to a modest 137/9. Spinners Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana led their team bowling, sharing five wickets between them, as only Shubman Gill showed some spink with a 39 in the company of Riyan Parag (26).

Brief scores:

India 137/9 in 20 overs (Shubman Gill 39; Maheesh Theekshana 3/28, Wanindu Hasaranga 2/29) beat Sri Lanka 137/8 in 20 overs (Kusal Perera 46, Kusal Mendis 43; Rinku Singh 2/3) in the Super Over.
