Pandya comes back after a tidy first spell from Kuldeep in which he bowled six overs for 24 runs.

He continues be on the shorter side as Mathews pulls it over midwicket for a four. Two balls later Siriwardana flays another short wide delivery over the cover region for the second four of the over.

Sri Lanka continue to rebuild and are helped by some loose deliveries from the Indian bowlers.

Axar bowls it full down the leg side as Mathews glances it fine for a four to inch closer to his half-century.

Siriwardana goes after Pandya as he pulls a short ball over square leg for a six. But the pacer gets revenge immediately off the next delivery as he gets the left-hander caught behind with a full delivery which moves away slightly.

Siriwardana walks back for 39 as Sri Lanka are reduced to 131 for five, in the 29th over.

Pandya greets new batsman Wanidu Hasaranga with a barrage of bouncers, even conceding a couple of wides for height.
