Watch: Suryakumar stuns with impossible 6 vs Sri Lanka

Suryakumar lived up to his 360 degrees reputation by hitting a six from an impossible angle as he moved to a delivery by Sri Lanka pacer Dilshan Madhushanka bowled outside the off stump and flicked the ball behind above short fine leg. In the follow through Suryakumar fell to the ground as he had to go low to bring off the extraordinary boundary in the 17th over.

Suryakumar scored 112* off just 51 balls in the third T20I against in Rajkot on Saturday. It was his third T20I century.  His knock was embellished with nine sixes and seven fours.

India ended up with a mammoth 228/5 in 20 overs on Saturday. Sri Lanka only managed only 137 in 16.4 overs, losing to the Hardik Pandya-led team by 91 runs. India has clinched the T20I series 2-1.
