Pune, Jan 11: India seamer Shardul Thakur on Friday showed once again how potent he can be with the bat coming in at No. 8.

The 28-year-old smashed 22 off 8 balls and his late burst with Manish Pandey helped India recover from a middle order collapse and post 201/6 in the third T20I against Sri Lanka here. In reply, Sri Lanka were bowled out for 123, thus losing the match by 78 runs.
