Sri Lanka secured a historic ODI series win against India, their first in 27 years, by winning the second match in Colombo by 32 runs and the third by 110 runs. Leg-spinner Jeffrey Vandersay was instrumental in the second ODI, taking a remarkable 6/33, which dismantled the Indian batting lineup as they failed to chase a target of 241, ending at 208. India’s captain Rohit Sharma made a valiant 64 off 44 balls but could not prevent a dramatic collapse, with the team losing six wickets for just 50 runs. Despite Axar Patel's efforts, India fell short, and Vandersay's performance highlighted the challenges posed by the spin-friendly pitch. In the third ODI, Dunith Wellalage led the Sri Lankan bowling attack with 5/27, concluding a series where Indian batting consistently faltered against Sri Lankan spinners.
