Nov 16, 2014

Lahiru Thirimanne was out for 52 against India in the fifth India in the fifth One-Day International at Ranchi. Earlier, Akshar Patel struck, dismissing Dinesh Chandimal for an agonising 30-ball five. Stuart Binny had got rid of Tillakaratne Dilshan, bowled for a well-made 35 off just 24 balls. Wicketkeeper-batsman Niroshan Dickwella was dismissed for just four to pacer Dhawal Kulkarni, caught brilliantly by Ambati Rayudu.

Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to bat first. Niroshan Dickwella made his debut at the expense of Kusal Perera, while Kedar Jadhav made his debut for India, coming in for Suresh Raina. Umesh Yadav too was replaced by Ravichandran Ashwin. India have already won the series 4-0
