Top knocks from captain Harmanpreet Kaur and Pooja Vastrakar and an amazing bowling spell from Rajeshwari Gayakwad helped India complete a clean sweep over Sri Lanka with a 39-run win here at Pallekele on Thursday.
Chahal took one wicket and conceded only 11 runs in his entire three-over spell. He was also awarded the 'Player of the Match' for his fantastic spell.
It was a poor day for Sri Lanka's batting and bowling unit as they could not do a lot with the bat on a difficult surface and despite their bowlers gave major breakthroughs in the second T20I.
Indian batters struggled to tackle the Lankan bowling attack properly, with only Shafali Verma, captain Harmanpreet Kaur and Jemimah Rodrigues putting some resistance.
Rippon has been selected as part of a 15-player squad for the following three-game T20 series against Ireland in Belfast, two T20s and an ODI against Scotland in Edinburgh, as well as two T20s against the Netherlands in Amsterdam on August 4 and 6.
