6.10pm The umpires and the India side have a discussion - perhaps around the possibility of a Super Over. But after a few words, it looks like India are walking back. The light is fading, but Tilak seems to be wanting more action. But no, he doesn't have his way. He leaves unsatisfied. Tilak looks very animated as he continues chatting with the umpires. He points out towards the pitch as if to indicate that there's still enough light to play. He's gesturing and discussing animatedly. You wonder whether he has crossed the line, and could be fined. We're still waiting for final confirmation more than five minutes after the final ball was bowled. But, but... just as we were prepared for the end, the umpires decide there will be a Super Over. The light is fading, but the Indian players make their way out.

Arshad Khan to Gunasekara, 1 leg bye, OUT, it's tied!! Arshad bowled too full on Gunasekara's pads, and the latter missed his attempted flick. The ball dribbled off his pads to the keeper's left, who tumbled to collect it. In the meanwhile, the batters attempted a second, and fell short in the end as Gunasekara was run out after Prabh threw it to Arshad, who was at the keeper's end by then

C Gunasekara run out 18 (25b 1x4 0x6) SR: 72

It's the set batter Gunasekara on strike. Mid-off and midwicket in.

Tilak, Gaikwad and Arshad in conversation. The Sri Lanka dugout is smiling nervously.

Arshad Khan to Shiraz, 1 run, But he gets a single. Pushes aerially at this length ball around middle and off, and gets a single to long-on

Shiraz at No. 10. India need to keep him on strike.

Jashan: "Here we go again..."
