Ravi Bishnoi's Brilliant Bowling Restricts Sri Lanka in Second T20I

Kusal Perera's aggressive fifty was not enough for Sri Lanka as Ravi Bishnoi's crucial three-wicket haul helped India restrict the home team to 161 for nine in the second T20I. India leads the three-match series 1-0, with Hardik Pandya and Arshdeep Singh supporting Bishnoi with two wickets apiece.

Kusal Perera's aggressive fifty laid the foundation for Sri Lanka's innings, but India's leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi turned the tide with three critical wickets in the second T20I.

Perera, scoring 54 off 34 balls, initially partnered with Pathum Nissanka, who added 32 off 24 balls. However, India's bowlers, led by Bishnoi's 3/26, stifled the host's middle and end overs charge.

Supporting Bishnoi, Hardik Pandya and Arshdeep Singh both took two wickets apiece, ultimately restricting Sri Lanka to a below-par total of 161 for nine. India now leads the three-match series 1-0.
