Ind 1st inns: 205-2 (57 ovs) vs SL 183 | Scorecard

Kohli looking a bit more positive as he plays another forceful drive off Herath, for a single. Dhawan guides one on the leg stump fine on the leg side for two runs before he keeps strike with a single from the last ball.

Kaushal, who leaked runs, is taken off and he makes way for fast bowler Prasad. Dhawan is watchful against the pacer and not surprising with just six runs needed for his century.

Change of ends for Kaushal, who takes over from Herath. Kohli gets a single from the first ball before Dhawan steers it past the slips for two runs and another drive through the covers three balls later takes him to 98.

Kohli looking a lot more busy as he turns Prasad on the leg side for a couple before taking a single to bring Dhawan back on strike.

The left-hander plays a stylish drive through the covers for a boundary to bring up his century in some style, from 178 balls. This is his second Test century in a row and his fourth hundred overall.

India are 205 for two in 57 overs, taking their lead to 22 runs.
