Wisden's review of the eighth match, India v Sri Lanka

Mendis and Gunathilaka have batted together four times in ODIs, each time for the second wicket, adding 128, 57, 4 and 159.

In the crucial segment between overs 25 and 40, which included the third Powerplay, India managed to score just 80 runs

Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Umesh Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja all have a wealth of experience in pressure situations, but they had no answer for Sri Lankan aggression at The Oval
