India 50-2 (17 ovs) vs SL | Scorecard


Pacer Dhammika Prasad to open the bowling on Day 2 and facing him is the Indian captain Virat Kohli.

The first two deliveries moves away as Kohli opts to leave before the third one comes in sharply, hitting the right-hander on the pads. The Sri Lankan go up in appeal but umpire Nigel Llong gives the batsman benefit of doubt, perhaps the height and movement came into consideration.

The last ball also shapes in and again Kohli is struck on the pads but yet again he survives the LBW shout. This was much closer than the previous one, maybe the impact was marginally outside the off-stump.

In the next over, Nuwan Pradeep cuts Cheteshwar Pujara into half with another one which comes in plus the extra bounce. The incoming deliveries create problems for both batsmen as Sri Lanka pacers start the day with back to back maidens.
