In the second T20 International match of the three-match series between India and Sri Lanka, fans remembered Mahendra Singh Dhoni. The second T20 International was played at the M Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, in which Sri Lanka won by four wickets. Sri Lanka’s batting all-rounder Hasaranga made a perfect throw during his bowling without looking at the stumps, which reminded him of former India captain and star cricketer Dhoni. However, this delivery of Hassaran did not harm Team India because Nitish Rana had reached the crease by that time.

Hasranga came to bowl the 19th over of the Indian innings. Bhuvneshwar Kumar played a straight shot in the second delivery of Hasaranga’s over and drove in, while Nitish Rana was at the end of a non-striker. Bhuvi and Rana completed the first run quickly and ran for the second run. There was a throw from the boundary on the edge of the bowling, where Hasunga was standing, he collected the ball and threw the ball without looking at the stumps and the ball went and hit the stumps. Nitish had reached the crease at the time, so India did no harm. Mahendra Singh Dhoni has once done the same. Dhoni made his mark against New Zealand at his home ground in Ranchi.
Speaking of the match, Sri Lanka won the toss and invited India to bat again. India were 132 for five in 20 overs. Shikhar Dhawan played 40 innings but faced 42 deliveries. In reply, Sri Lanka lost the six-wicket haul in 19.4 overs and tied the series at 1-1. The decision-makers of the series will play today.
