Perera continues to leak runs as Pujara slaps a full delivery down the ground past mid-on for a four and then takes two runs through point.

The off-spinner drops short as Pujara punches him through the covers for two more runs to get eight from the over.

Virat Kohli comes forward to defend but is struck on the pads as Sri Lanka appeal for leg before wicket but it is turned down. After a little bit of hesitation, captain Chandimal decides to take the DRS but Kohli had got the inside edge and Sri Lanka lose their second and final review.

Kohli then gets off the mark as he flicks Herath through midwicket for a four and then punches the fifth ball to long-on for one.

Perera replaces Herath as the off-spinner is punched straight down the ground for a four by Kohli.

He then keeps strike with one from the last ball as India reach 237 for two in 80 overs.

Sri Lanka immediately take the second new ball as pacer Gamage continues.

Meanwhile, Sadeera Samarawickrama, who was hit on the ribs by a sweep shot from Vijay has been taken to hospital for precautionary x-rays.
