 "India vs Sri Lanka: 'Great win by the boys', Virat Kohli, VVS Laxman and others congratulate Team India on series win")
Colombo: India’s No 8 batsman Deepak Chahar hit an unbeaten 69 as India edged out Sri Lanka by three wickets in the second one-day international to clinch the series on Tuesday. India chased down their target of 276 with five balls to spare as Chahar recorded his maiden ODI fifty after the tourists, who took an unbeatable 2-0 lead in the three-match series, slipped to 193-7 in Colombo. Chahar, who also took two wickets with his pace bowling to limit Sri Lanka to 275-9, was involved in an unbeaten 84-run eighth-wicket stand with Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who made 19.

India are unbeaten in Sri Lanka since July 2012
India have beaten SL in SL for the 10th consecutive ODI. Also as @MazherArshad pointed out India's 93rd win over SL in ODIs is the most number of wins by a team against any opponent. INDIA have not lost v SL in SL since July 2012 #SLvIND

What a turnaround!
At 193/7, few would have given India a chance, but Deepak Chahar and Bhuvi have pulled off a remarkable win.

What a knock by Deepak Chahar!
Fine win by India, thanks to Deepak Chahar with bat! Without his strokeful half century India were sunk which should be a lesson for Chahar’s profligate teammates & team management. With better talent and stronger self belief Sri Lanka could have won easily

How true this is!
Bat deep. The modern mantra of white ball cricket. Bat deep and keep going for it
