New Zealand v Sri Lanka: Game 4
Chameera showed the kind of intent no Lankan bowler had exhibited this series

Dushmantha Chameera and Dasun Shanaka led Sri Lanka's fightback with the ball, putting on an impressive performance to push India onto the back-foot. Once Rohit Sharma was back in the pavilion, India looked a tad shaky although Manish Pandey and Shreyas Iyer built a steady partnership.

As the Wankhede slowed up, Thisara Perera and Dasun Shanaka mixed it up while Chameera persisted at one end. India lost a few wickets in the middle period as Sri Lanka finally came into their own in the T20 series. What looked like a poor total suddenly appeared daunting for the hosts.
