Ind 1st inns: 70-2 (18 ovs) vs SL 183 | Scorecard

Kohli turns the first ball from Mathews behind square on the leg side for a couple and then drives the next through the covers for a four to bring up India's 50, in the 14th over.

Meanwhile, Prasad comes back from the other end. A short wide delivery is cut past point for a four by Dhawan as India reach 54 for two in 15 overs.

Off-spinner Tharindu Kaushal comes into the attack. He bowls two no-balls in his very first over, the second one went the other way and had completely deceived Dhawan. Four runs from the offie's first over, including two no-balls.

In the next over, Kohli stands tall and slams a short wide delivery from Prasad through the covers for a four as India's innings gets back on track after the two early wickets.

In his next over, Kaushal once again oversteps to give away another no-ball, his third in 10 balls.

He finally gets it right as Dhawan comes forward to defend but the turn does him, taking the edge but Mathews at first slip is unable to take the low catch.

The next delivery is a wide half-volley and Kohli slaps it through the covers for another four.
