LUNCH - DAY 2

India 119-4 (45.5 ovs) vs SL | Scorecard


Prasad produces a beauty to beats Pujara all ends, moves away after pitching and has some extra bounce too. That was unplayable! How unlucky was the bowler not to end up with a wicket with that delivery.

Pujara has changed gears as he pulls a short ball from Herath through midwicket for another four, to take his score to 55.

Prasad is finally rewarded with the wicket he deserved. The pacer bowled it wide outside the off-stump, tempting Rohit to have a go which resisted. Then Prasad bowled one closer to the stumps and Rohit was forced to defend but got an edge to be caught at first slip after scoring 26.

So a wicket at the worst time for India as Rohit is dismissed on the stroke of lunch to make it a good session for the hosts.

At lunch on Day 2, India are 119 for four in 45.5 overs. Pujara has done well to see off the session to be unbeaten on a patient innings of 55 from 138 balls.

The morning session went to plan for Sri Lanka as India managed just 69 runs in 30.5 overs while losing wickets in the process.
