Sri Lanka lose to India

Sri Lanka were beaten by India in their semifinal match of the Under-19 Asia Cup in Dubai yesterday after rain reduced the contest to a 20-over game.

The only bright spark was an innings of 42 by Chamika Heenatigala as Sri Lanka made 138 for 8 in the 20 overs which India had no worries chasing down for the loss of two wickets in 18 overs.

Scores:
Sri Lanka 138 for 8 in 20 overs (Viran Chamuditha 19, Vimath Dinsara 32, Chamika Heenatigala 42, Sethmika Senaviratne 30)

India 139 for 2 in 18 overs (Aaron George 58 not out, Vihaan Malhotra 61 not out, Rasith Nimsara 2 for 31)
