India clinched the three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka on Thursday with a four-wicket victory at the Eden Gardens. The battle was all but lost and won in the first half with the visitors putting up a pathetic batting display. The Indians then made heavy weather of a modest target of 216, but wrapped it up in the 44th over before 50,000 vociferous fans. It gave them an unassailable 2-0 lead.

Fernando top-scores for SL

But for a brief period on a firm yet friendly wicket, the Sri Lanka batsmen never looked threatening and it is to debutant Nuwanidu Fernando’s credit that he top-scored with a 63-ball 50.
