As the innings progressed to a critical point, Sri Lanka reached 188 runs with four wickets in hand after 40 overs. Tension escalated as fans questioned whether India could reel in another win and turn the series around. Whispers of the batting order shuffle and other strategies filled the airwaves, all while fans clung to their cabbage rolls for moral support. Will India redeem themselves, or will Sri Lanka walk away with the bragging rights?
