The primary ODI between India and Sri Lanka in Guwahati virtually had its controversial second when Mohammed Shami tried to expire rival skipper Dasun Shanaka on the non-striker's finish within the final over of the match. Nonetheless, India captain Rohit Sharma withdrew the enchantment as Shanaka went on to finish his second ODI ton. India gained the match by 67 runs. "I had no thought Shami did that (run-out), he (Shanaka) was batting on 98. The way in which he batted was good, we can't get him out like that. Not one thing that we considered, hats off to him, he performed very well," Rohit stated on the post-match presentation ceremony.

Rohit's motion was lauded by former Sri Lanka skipper Angelo Mathews and star batter Sanath Jayasuriya.

"Not many captains would do that however hats off to @ImRo45 for withdrawing the enchantment regardless that the regulation says so! Displaying nice sportsmanship," Angelo Mathews tweeted.
