Chinaman spinner Kuldeep against his counterpart Lakshan Sandakan. The Indian takes the upperhand as he beats Sandakan with a super delivery, the wrong one, which foxes the right-hander completely.

In the next over, Sandakan inside edges Ashwin but it falls short of the fielder at short leg.

Kuldeep drops it short as Sandakan pulls it past square leg for a four and Dickwella plays his favourite shot, the sweep, against Ashwin for another boundary in the next over.

Kuldeep is taken off as India bring back Shami, who bowled a magnificent spell at the start of the day.

He nearly picks up another wicket as he beats Dickwella with a full wide delivery with the the left-hander attempting the drive.

In Shami's next over, Dickwella plays a shot through the off-side as he gets a boundary past point. He then has a wild swing off the next delivery but is beaten before he struck on the pads but the leg before appeal is turned down.
