2nd T20I: Axar, Surya heroics go in vain as SL beat India to level series

Axar Patel (65 off 31) and Suryakumar Yadav (36-ball 51) half-centuries in a stunning 91-run sixth wicket partnership went in vain as Sri Lanka got the better of India in the second T20I in Pune. A 16-run win helped the Lankans level the three-match series 1-1 on Thursday. Skipper Dasun Shanaka produced an all-round show, first smashing unbeaten 56 off 22 balls and then defending 21 in the final over to take his team home in the do-or-die encounter.
