Leading Sri Lanka to their second T20I series win in the last two years, Dasun Shanaka has revealed that he talked to Rahul Dravid about how India approach their innings in white-ball format. He also backed Wanindu Hasaranga to topple Tabraiz Shamsi as the best spinner in T20Is.

Post the stunning 2-1 series defeat at the hands of Sri Lanka, Indian skipper Shikhar Dhawan stated that it was a difficult situation for the visitors but insisted that he was glad they decided to stay. He also added that losing too many early wickets did not help India’s cause in the third T20I.

Usually, batsmen often show their anger towards the bowlers when they are off to one of their celebratory runs. But Sri Lankan all-rounder Wanindu Hasranga isn’t one of them, with the all-rounder applauding the Indian spinner Rahul Chahar after the latter beat him in the air to dismiss him.

Following Varun Chakravarthy’s international debut, VVS Laxman admitted that he was glad that the mystery spinner finally got his chances to play internationally. While stating that Varun is an X-factor bowler, Laxman stressed the importance of giving such players a continued run.
