SL 1st inns: 155-7 (44 ovs) vs Ind | Scorecard

Aaron continues to leak runs as Chandimal hits him for as many as four boundaries, in the 43rd over.

He drops short as Chandimal hits him through point and over midwicket respectively. The right-hander smashes the fifth ball through the covers for another four to bring up his fifty in some style, from 65 balls. The last ball is again a loose ball as Chandimal hammers it past point for another boundary as 16 runs come from the over.

Ashwin completes his five-wicket haul with the wicket of Dhammika Prasad, who is trapped leg before wicket for a duck. This is Ashwin's 11th five-wicket haul and has clearly outshone his senior off-spin colleague Harbhajan. His figures read: 11-2-31-5
