Watch: Siraj Takes Wicket After Heated Spat With SL Star. Kohli Does This

Mohammed Siraj was involved in a war of words with Sri Lanka's Kusal Medis during the India vs Sri Lanka third ODI at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Wednesday. In the follow-up, the India pacer claimed a wicket and the reaction of his teammate Virat Kohli could not miss the spotlight. The incident took place during Sri Lanka's batting. Siraj was brought back into the attack to bowl the 39th over. He bowled three consecutive dot balls to Mendis, with the last one witnessing him having a heated exchange with the batter. On the very next ball, Mendis got a single and Siraj then dismissed Sadeera Samarawickrama, who was facing his first ball in the game.

Umpire was unconvinced with an appeal for LBW, but India went upstairs. The review revealed that the ball hit Samarawickrama's boot first instead of the bat. Ball tracking then revealed that it would have hit the leg stump. The decision was overturned to out, and Virat Kohli along with other India teammates celebrated it in an animated fashion. Kohli even gave a fiery send-off to the batter.

Watch it here:

Avishka Fernando and Kusal Mendis starred with their respective fifties as Sri Lanka posted a competitive total of 248 for 7 against India in the third and final ODI at R Premadasa Stadium, Colombo.

Avishka scored 96 while Kusal hit 59. For India, Riyan Parag was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 3 for 54 in 9 overs.

In reply, India were bowled out for 138, losing the game by 110 runs. It also saw the visitors lose the series 0-2.

RCB "Will Just Retain Virat Kohli, Release Everyone Else": Ex-India Star

The Board of Control for Cricket in India released the IPL auction rules on Sunday. Each franchise can retain upto 6 players with Right To Match (RTM) option included in it. As the teams have started finalizing their picks ahead of the IPL 2025 auction, former India pacer RP Singh has passed a huge verdict on franchise Royal Challengers Bengaluru. He said that the side will only retain Virat Kohli and release everyone else, relying on the RTM. Notably, Kohli is playing for RCB since the inaugural season of IPL. Kohli is the highest run-getter in IPL history with 8004 to his credit from 252 matches. He has scored 8 centuries, the most by any player in the tournament, and 55 half-centuries. "I feel they don't have any problem. They will just retain Virat Kohli, release everyone else, and use the RTM," RP Singh said during a discussion on Colors Cineplex. Given a total of 6 retentions, including RTM, are allowed, the IPL franchise can choose their combination for it. Howv

T20 WC Live: Netherlands Face Sri Lanka In A Must-Win Game For Dutch

Sri Lanka vs Netherlands LIVE Updates, T20 World Cup 2024: Netherlands may be out of the 2024 T20 World Cup even before their match against Sri Lanka ends, if Bangladesh beat Nepal. However, the Dutch need to beat Sri Lanka by a healthy scoreline to keep any hopes of qualifying to the Super 8 stage alive. The game also offers Sri Lanka a chance to get their first win, in what has been a hugely disappointing tournament for the 2014 champions. They would likely finish bottom of their group if they fail to win.

156.7 Kmph Sensation Awaits India Debut, Bangladesh Start Life After Shakib

Pace sensation Mayank Yadav is expected to unleash his raw speed while the absence of India's T20 regulars will provide another opportunity to the fringe players in the three-match series against Bangladesh, beginning here Sunday. Having consistently generated speed in excess of 150kmph in his maiden IPL earlier this year, Mayank had drawn the attention of the cricketing world before a side strain ruled him out of the tournament. Usually, one has to prove fitness in domestic cricket to be considered for national selection but the 22-year-old has been fast-tracked into the side considering his special talent. The series against Bangladesh will be a test of his fitness and temperament. It is yet to be figured if he can display the same accuracy and control that he exhibited in the IPL. Besides Mayank, fellow Delhi pacer Harshit Rana and all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy could also make their India debut over the course of the series. Nitish was picked for the Zimbabwe tour post the T
