The pitch in Dharamsala was definitely bowler friendly. It had a green tinge on it and carried a lot of moisture since it has been raining and snowing in Himachal Pradesh on the days leading into the game. However, pitching the ball in the right areas was still important for the bowlers to make the batsmen commit mistakes and Lakmal did that with perfection.
He bowled around the off-stump channel and got movement in the air as well as off the track. None of the Indian batsmen looked comfortable against him as he finished with the figures of 10-4-13-4.
