August 14, 2017  12:53


SL 90-4 (46 ovs) 135 vs India 487 | Scorecard


Spin to begin the post-lunch session as Kuleep Yadav continues. Chandimal turns the second ball on the leg side for a couple before he defends the rest of the over.

It will be spinners from both ends as Ravichandran Ashwin comes in from the other end.

Mathews looks to loft the off-spinner over the leg side but fails to make proper connection and ends up getting a single to deep square leg and Chandimal picks an easy run off the next ball.

Ashwin then gets one to go straight on as Mathews gets the edge which kept low and went past the slip fielder for a couple of runs.

A single to Mathews on the leg side off Ashwin raises the 50-run stand for the fifth wicket between Mathews and Chandimal.

Chandimal comes forward to defend and gets an inside edge as the ball turns but it flies wide of Pujara at short leg.
