Sooryavanshi clashes with Sri Lanka players after India A defeat - Watch

India A batter Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was involved in a verbal exchange with some Sri Lanka A players after the end of their One-Day tri-series match in Dambulla on Monday, following a tense finish that was decided in a Super Over. The incident took place after the final ball of the Super Over. Chasing 19 for victory, India A needed eight runs off the last delivery. Sri Lanka A pacer Kugathas Mathulan bowled a yorker, and Vaibhav failed to make contact as Sri Lanka A sealed the win. As Sri Lanka A players began celebrating, Vaibhav appeared upset and exchanged words with one of the fielders. India A teammate Suryansh Shedge stepped in and pulled him away, but the youngster continued the exchange briefly before both teams completed the customary handshakes. The match had earlier ended in a tie after both teams scored 265 runs in their allotted 50 overs. Batting first, India A were bowled out for 265 in 49.2 overs. Suryansh Shedge top-scored with 72 off 66 balls, while Vipraj Nigam contributed 51 off 49 balls lower down the order. Sri Lanka A matched the total in their 50 overs, thanks largely to Sadeera Samarawickrama's 93 off 113 balls, taking the contest into a Super Over. Sri Lanka A then posted 18 runs in the Super Over, setting India A a target of 19. Under fading conditions, India A found the chase difficult. Mathulan delivered the decisive over for Sri Lanka A. After keeping India A under pressure throughout the over, he finished with a yorker on the final ball when eight runs were required. India A could manage only nine runs in the Super Over, handing Sri Lanka A victory and the two points.
