While chasing 175, the hosts lost the wicket of Kusal Mendis in the second over itself, but that didn't stop the new batsman, Kusal Perera, from going after the bowling straight away.

He went after everything during the field restrictions, and it was raining fours and sixes. A dot ball or a single was a rare sight, and in one over, Shardul Thakur went for 27 runs, which turned out to be the second most expensive over bowled by an Indian bowler in the shortest format of the game.

The left-hander made a mockery of the big total of 174 and helped his side chase it with ease, as they won the match in the 19th over itself.
