IND vs SL, World Cup 2023 Highlights: Shami takes 5 as India qualify for semi-finals

Right then, that's all from this game. India have become the first team to qualify for the semis of the 2023 ODI World Cup. As far as Sri Lanka are concerned, it has been a dismal campaign for them, and they now find themselves on the brink of elimination. The action in the 2023 ODI World Cup continues on Friday, November 3rd when the Netherlands take on Afghanistan in Lucknow. Both teams have punched above their weight, and it should be a cracker of a game. The first ball will be bowled at 2 pm IST (8.30 am GMT), but our build-up will begin much sooner. Until then, take care and goodbye!

Rohit Sharma, the victorious skipper of India says that he is very happy knowing that they have officially made it to the semis. Adds that this was the first aim and everyone chipped in with good performances in all seven games. Tells that they batted really well to put a 350+ score on the board which is a great total on any wicket. Says that Shreyas Iyer is a very strong lad mentally and he showed his qualities with the bat here and took the attack to the Lankan bowlers with those huge hits. Praises Mohammed Siraj as well and having a fast bowler like him who can do that is a great thing for a captain. Credits Suryakumar Yadav as well for stepping up in the last game and says that their pace unit is absolutely fantastic and they are exploiting the conditions well. Mentions that KL Rahul has been good behind the stumps and he needs someone who can help him with the reviews and he has stepped up for that. Ends by saying that they are up for the South Africa challenge next and both teams are playing good cricket and the people of Kolkata will enjoy that match.

Sri Lanka's captain, Kusal Mendis says he is really disappointed including himself as the batting unit couldn't score runs. He praises the opposition's bowling unit and credits their bowlers. Mentions that he is very happy with the performance of Dilshan Madushanka as he bowled really well in the first overs as well as the middle overs. Adds that Shubman Gill's chance and Virat Kohli's chance weren't taken and it could have gone either way. States that he is happy that they bowled pretty well in the middle overs. He still believes in the team as they have a slight margin to qualify for the knockouts and hopes that they will come back against Bangladesh and New Zealand.

Mohammed Shami is the Player of the Match for his amazing five-wicket haul. He firstly thanks the almighty. He says that all the practice in the nets is paying off and they are enjoying bowling as a unit. Adds that all the bowlers are having fun and it becomes easy to bowl when the environment around you is so good. Tells that he just focuses on hitting the right lengths and staying in good rhythm as in a long tournament like this it is hard to find it back if you lose it. Says that it is all about recovering well, eating well and keeping your mind free and the results will follow. Ends by saying that that support has been fantastic not just here but outside India as well and he hopes that it goes on like this and he continues to perform for the fans.

Time for the presentation ceremony...

Earlier in the game, after being inserted into bat, India were dealt an early blow as they lost Rohit Sharma on the second delivery of the game. Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli then got together and helped India recover from that shaky start with an 189-run stand. Having gotten life early on in their innings, both Gill and Kohli grew in confidence as the innings progressed and ran Sri Lanka ragged. Although they missed out on their respective hundreds, they had done their job of laying a solid foundation for the Indian innings. Shreyas Iyer then took over and dealt in sixes to ensure that the innings did not lose steam during his entertaining 82-run knock. It was Ravindra Jadeja who batted through and his unbeaten cameo helped India cross 350. For Sri Lanka, Dilshan Madushanka was the only positive with a five-wicket haul and he became the 4th Sri Lankan bowler to pick five wickets or more in a World Cup game.

With 358 to chase for victory, Sri Lanka had to pull off something special, given that a 300-plus score had never been chased at the Wankhede Stadium. As the scoreboard suggests, there is nothing much to write home about for the Lankan batters. They were off to the worst possible start in their chase as Pathum Nissanka and Dimuth Karunaratne were dismissed for a golden duck. Just like the openers, Sadeera Samarawickrama and Kusal Mendis looked all at sea against the Indian new ball attack. Charith Asalanka and Angelo Mathews showed resistance, but the relentless Indian pace attack kept coming at them, and they had to eventually throw in the towel. Thanks to contributions from Kasun Rajitha and Maheesh Theekshana, they were able to cross the 36-run mark, the lowest score in ODI World Cup history. However, the writing was already on the wall for them and in the end, they capitulated to an embarrassing loss in 19.4 overs.

As they have done throughout the World Cup, India put on an absolute clinic with the new ball yet again. Jasprit Bumrah set the tone for the hosts with a wicket from his very first delivery, and it certainly rubbed off on his new ball partner. Having not been that effective upfront in the past few games, Mohammed Siraj returned to his usual best and had the ball on a string to set the cat among the pigeons. Mohammed Shami wasted no time in getting into the act and made sure to pile more misery on the Sri Lankan batters. He ran through the opposition's lower middle order and bagged another five-wicket haul of this World Cup. Also, he is now India's leading wicket-taker in Cricket World Cup history, a testament to his legacy. Towards the end, Ravindra Jadeja was brought into the attack and he completed the formalities to wrap up a thumping victory for India.

As clinical as it can get! It was nothing short of a dream game for the Men in Blue in the 'City of Dreams'! A resounding victory by a margin of 302 runs for Rohit Sharma's men and by doing so, they have sealed their berth in the semis of the 2023 ODI World Cup. As for Sri Lanka, they have been absolutely annihilated by India in this encounter, and it was a performance they would like to forget as quickly as possible. At the halfway mark, they would have hoped to put up a fight with the bat, but it seems like the mental scars inflicted by India during the Asia Cup final have not healed yet.

Charith Asalanka is the next man in with Sri Lanka in early trouble.

1.5: Mohammed Siraj to Sadeera Samarawickrama, OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Mohammed Siraj gets his man eventually! Technology does not come to Sadeera Samarawickrama's aid this time! Pulls his length back and bowls it in the channel on off, a bit of away movement. A loose shot by Sadeera Samarawickrama as he pokes away from the body and without any foot movement. Gets an outside edge that flies straight to Shreyas Iyer at third slip who makes no mistake. Kusal Mendis at the non-striker's end, stands there in disbelief. Sri Lanka are crumbling here at 2/3.

1.4: Mohammed Siraj to Sadeera Samarawickrama, BEATEN! Mohammed Siraj lands this on a good length and just around off, shaping away again, Sadeera Samarawickrama looks to push it away but gets beaten on the outside edge.

1.3: Mohammed Siraj to Sadeera Samarawickrama, Fuller one and on off, shaping away, Sadeera Samarawickrama knocks it with a straight bat towards mid off.

1.2: Mohammed Siraj to Sadeera Samarawickrama, Given caught behind but Sadeera Samarawickrama takes the review! Fullish delivery, shaping away, outside off, Sadeera Samarawickrama has a feel for the delivery as he reaches out in front. Gets beaten on the outside edge and there is a noise as the ball passes next to the bat. The umpire is conceived as well and he raises his finger. Sadeera Samarawickrama knows he has not hit and sends it upstairs. The UltraEdge shows no bat and the replays show that it was the bat hitting the ground which made the noise.

Sadeera Samarawickrama comes out to the middle now.

1.1: Mohammed Siraj to Dimuth Karunaratne, OUT! LBW! Mohammed Siraj strikes on his first delivery as well! Sri Lanka have lost both their openers inside the first seven balls. Starts from over the wicket and goes full in search of swing, full and swinging in, on middle and leg, Dimuth Karunaratne fails to read the line of the delivered and plays all around it as the tries to work it across the line. He gets pinged on the front pad and the up goes the finger. Dimuth Karunaratne takes the review, more in hope though. Nothing on UltraEdge and it is three reds on Ball Tracking. Dimuth Karunaratne departs for a golden duck as well.

Mohammed Siraj to share the attack.

0.6: Jasprit Bumrah to Kusal Mendis, Fullish delivery, outside off, Kusal Mendis reaches out and drives it back to the bowler. End of an eventful over from Jasprit Bumrah.

0.5: Jasprit Bumrah to Kusal Mendis, Keeps it full again and angling into off, Kusal Mendis keeps it out watchfully off the front foot.

0.4: Jasprit Bumrah to Kusal Mendis, It's all happening! Full and slanting in, on off and middle, Kusal Mendis accounts for the inward movement and tries to clip it across the line but he closes the bat face early. He gets a leading edge that goes just over the leaping Jasprit Bumrah in his follow through.

0.3: Jasprit Bumrah to Kusal Mendis, Swing and a miss! Gets this one to angle away on a good length, in the channel on off, Kusal Mendis tries to swing through the line with the angle but the ball moves away and goes past his outside edge.

0.2: Jasprit Bumrah to Kusal Mendis, Full and shaping in, at the stumps, Kusal Mendis gets behind the line to defend but the ball nips back and catches the inside edge as it rolls towards square leg.

0.2: Jasprit Bumrah to Kusal Mendis, WIDE! A bit too straight again as he Jasprit Bumrah slips this one down leg, Kusal Mendis fails to tickle it away and it is called a wide. Sri Lanka are underway with an extra!

0.2: Jasprit Bumrah to Kusal Mendis, WIDE! A 'Superman' effort from KL Rahul to save a certain boundary! Gets the ball to tail back in sharply but the radar is a bit down leg, on a good length, KL Rahul springs himself to his left and stretches out with his left hand to make an excellent stop.

Kusal Mendis, the skipper of Sri Lanka walks out to bat at number 3.

0.1: Jasprit Bumrah to Pathum Nissanka, OUT! LBW! What a start for Jasprit Bumrah and India! The in-form Pathum Nissanka departs for a golden duck. Bumrah charges in from over the wicket and angles it in, on a good length, on off and middle. Pathum Nissanka plays for the ball coming in but it straightens after pitching and hits him on the high on the back thigh. India go up in unison and the umpire raises his finger. Pathum Nissanka has a word with his partner and goes for the review with four seconds left on the timer. It looked dead straight in real-time and there is nothing on UltraEdge. Wickets is umpire's call on Ball Tracking and the on-field decision will stand. Sri Lanka keep their review but lose Pathum Nissanka.

We are back for the chase! We can see the Indian players in a huddle and now they spread out to take their respective field positions. Pathum Nissanka and Dimuth Karunaratne are the two openers for Sri Lanka. Jasprit Bumrah to start proceedings with the ball. Here we go...

... THE RUN CHASE ...

Right then, India have posted a huge total on the board and with their quality bowling attack, they will be confident of defending this one. Sri Lanka will need some inspiration and all of their batting resources to gun this down and hand the hosts their first defeat. Join us in a bit to see how the chase unfolds.

Shreyas Iyer, one of the architects of the Indian innings is up for a quick chat. He says that it was a pretty good wicket to bat. Adds that it was easy to rotate the strike. Mentions that his plan was to capitalise on loose deliveries. Feels that Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli steadied the ship and laid the platform for others to chip in. Shares that the message was that the slower deliveries were holding in the surface and therefore, they had to watch for it carefully.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, only have themselves to blame as they dropped catches of both Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli and that has cost them badly in this game. Their ground fielding was also not up to standards but it got better as the game progressed. Dilshan Madushanka gave them a brilliant start by getting rid of Rohit Sharma in the very first overs but they could build on that allowing the hosts to gain control of the game. However, it was Madushanka again who delivered the breakthroughs in the middle overs by getting the wickets of Gill and Kohli in quick succession but once again they couldn't stop the hosts from forming another partnership. They leaked too many runs at the fag end of the innings and it was looking like Madushanka versus India as he registered a fine five-wicket haul while Dushmantha Chameera got one too, and they forced two run outs in the last over, but they will need some heroes in their team to get over the line here.

After starting the innings with a boundary, India lost their skipper Rohit Sharma on the very next ball and the crowd went silent. Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill also struggled initially but both were given second chances by the Lankan fielders and they grabbed that with both hands. They were able to rotate the strike well and also did not miss out on putting away the loose balls. It was looking like that both the batters will score big as they registered their fifties but continued to score runs at a good rate. They added 189 runs for the second wicket but Gill just missed out on his first ever World Cup hundred as he departed for 92. The fans were expecting King Kohli to equal Sachin Tendulkar's record of 49 ODI hundreds but he too fell short and was dismissed for 88 and the hosts had two new batters at the crease and had to rebuild. Shreyas Iyer wasted no time and batted aggressively with KL Rahul providing good support from the other end. Iyer lost a couple of partners but continued his onslaught and smashed it all around the park. He left the park after scoring a stunning 82 off just 56 balls which included more sixes than boundaries. His knock took them closer to the 350-run mark while a nice little cameo from Ravindra Jadeja took them past that and helped them reach a massive total.

Another fantastic batting performance from India! They have used the batting conditions really well here at Wankhede and ended up with 357 runs with excellent knocks from Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, and Shreyas Iyer. The Lankans will be disappointed with their effort as they know they could have done better but now have an uphill task if they want to get anything out of this game.

49.6: Kasun Rajitha to Ravindra Jadeja, OUT! RUN OUT! A run out to end the innings! Angles this one in, on a length, over middle, Ravindra Jadeja goes for the pull but does not manage to find the gap. Hits it towards deep square leg and wants to take two since it is the last delivery. Sadeera Samarawickrama in the deep, collects it cleanly and releases the throw towards the batting end. Kusal Mendis makes no mistake in taking the bails off and catches Jadeja short of his crease. India end with 357/8 on the board!

49.5: Kasun Rajitha to Ravindra Jadeja, Comes from around the wicket and goes full, near the tramline on off, Ravindra Jadeja reaches out and hits it on the bounce towards long off. He refuses the single and opts to stay on strike for the last delivery.

49.4: Kasun Rajitha to Jasprit Bumrah, In the air.. but safe! Slower and fuller, outside off, Jasprit Bumrah goes for a swipe across the line but the ball does arrives slowly and he ends up chipping it in the air. The ball drops in the vacant mid-wicket region for a single.

Jasprit Bumrah is the next man in.

49.3: Kasun Rajitha to Mohammed Shami, OUT! RUN OUT! Kasun Rajitha loops it up, slower and on a fullish length, outside off, Mohammed Shami gets beaten in the flight as the ball dips on him and fails to connect. He sets off for a bye as the ball rolls behind the stumps but Kusal Mendis is alert and fires an underarm throw. Shami gets sent back but it is too late as Mendis hits the target at the batting end.

49.2: Kasun Rajitha to Ravindra Jadeja, Short and outside off, Ravindra Jadeja flat bats this one down to long off and opts to take the single this time.

49.1: Kasun Rajitha to Ravindra Jadeja, Slower and slanting in, full and on middle and leg, Ravindra Jadeja gets his bat out in front and nudges it in front of deep mid-wicket. Calls for two immediately and completes it with ease.

Who will bowl the last over? It will be Kasun Rajitha. He has conceded 60 runs in his eight overs. Can he keep India under 360?

47.6: Dilshan Madushanka to Ravindra Jadeja, Buzzers! Bangs it in short, outside off, Ravindra Jadeja hops to ride on top of the bounce and tucks it in front of deep mid-wicket and completes the second run.

Gets this one off the bottom part of the bat and skies it high in the air towards extra cover where Maheesh Theekshana settles under it and snaffles it. Dilshan Madushanka has his fifth wicket and India are now 6 down!

A fine review from Sri Lanka! Dilshan Madushanka bangs this short and down the leg side, Suryakumar Yadav looks to hook it away but misses as Kusal Mendis behind the stump pouches it and appeals. It is turned down by the umpire. Kusal Mendis looks confident and takes the review. UltraEdge shows a slight spike when the ball is close to the gloves and the on-field call is changed.

37.4: Dushmantha Chameera to KL Rahul, Goes fuller in length, around off, KL Rahul shimmies down the track and goes for a swipe across the line.
