India went down to Sri Lanka by five wickets in the first of the three-match Twenty20 series in Pune. India were all out for a paltry 101 in 18.5 overs yesterday, and Sri Lanka reached the target with two overs to spare. It’s a blow for skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, after the team won their previous series against Australia 3-0, to move first in the ICC rankings for the short format.
