India went down to Sri Lanka by five runs in their first ICC World Twenty20 warm-up game at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium Mirpur(Dhaka) Monday.
Chasing a target of 154, India came close to kissing distance of a win, thanks to a cameo of Ravichandran Ashwin's 12-ball 19 but were bowled out for 148 runs in 20 overs. Curiously skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni didn't come out to bat due to an injury.
Virat Kohli (17) and Ravindra Jadeja (12) got good starts but failed to convert them into match-winning scores.
