Dharamshala: Indian opener Ishan Kishan has been ruled out of the second T20I match against Sri Lanka (IND vs SL 2nd T20I) with an injury. The player will remain under the care of the BCCI medical team. With this, it is doubtful that Kishan will play in the third T20I (IND vs SL 3rd T20I) today. Ishan Team India may rest today, news agency ANI reported.
In the fourth over of the Indian innings, Sri Lankan pacer Lahiru Kumara threw the ball to Ishant’s helmet while trying to play a pull shot. The medical team immediately examined the star but did not find any significant problems. With the resumption of Ishant batting, the teams and the fans were relieved. Ishant Kishan (16 off 15 balls with two fours) was followed by Lahiru’s own ball. After this, the actor was sent to the hospital for expert examination. Ishaan was admitted to a hospital in Kangra, Himachal Pradesh. The star underwent CT scanning.
Shreyas Iyer, Sanju Samson and Ravindra Jadeja’s superb batting helped India beat Sri Lanka 2-0 in the second T20I to win the series 2-0. India won by seven wickets with 17 balls to spare. Score: Sri Lanka 183-5 in 20 overs and India 186-3 in 17.1 overs. Shreyas Iyer scored 74 * off 44 balls, Ravindra Jadeja 45 * off 18 balls and Sanju Samson 39 off 25 balls. Skipper Rohit Sharma was out for a run. Shreyas Iyer, who scored a half-century in the second match in a row, was India’s winner.
The third and final T20I of the series starts today at 7 pm Indian time at Dharamshala. If they win, Rohit and his team will be able to sweep the T20 series against Sri Lanka after the West Indies series. India may make changes to the playing XI as they have already won the series. Ishant Kishan may also come as a replacement. It is hoped that the Malayalee player Sanju Samson, who was crushed yesterday, will still be on the field today. Sri Lanka is aiming for a consolation victory.
