TEA - DAY 3

SL 175-8 (48 ovs) vs India 312 | Scorecard

And not surprising that Kohli has had enough of the spin bowlers as he brings back pacer Yadav. And immediately Prasad calls on for extra protection including chest guard and the arm guard.

He is immediately on target, getting the deliveries to slant across left-hander Herath. He plays and misses a few before finally edging one which goes between the slips. Rahul at second slip makes a valiant effort, diving full length to his left but can't take the catch as it goes for a four.

A thrilling session of cricket, providing a lot of entertainment to the fans. Sri Lanka scored 128 runs in 30 overs for the loss of three wickets in the post-lunch session.

At the tea break, Sri Lanka reached 175 for eight in 48 overs, trailing India by 137 runs.

Herath continued to frustrate the Indians with a dogged innings of 47, while Prasad was unbeaten on six.
