When Sri Lanka A were chasing, it did seem like the match was boiling down to be a thriller. And so it proved to be, in multiple ways. The scores were tied after 50 overs, then followed considerable drama on whether the super over would even take place. Tilak Varma appeared agitated throughout, being involved in multiple intense chats with the umpires. First, Tilak was in an animated chat regarding the super over, and then over a no-ball call on the final ball of the SL A’s super over.
In the end, Sri Lanka A held their nerves and won the super over by 7 runs. India A perhaps missed a trick by not letting Sooryavanshi take strike for the super over. The match ended on an ugly note, however, as Sooryavanshi got involved in a heated clash with a Sri Lanka A player.
