Five singles from Perera's 13th over as India go past the Sri Lanka's total and take the lead.

Herath bowls a full delivery on the pads as Vijay flicks it through the leg side for a four to bring up the 200-run stand for the second wicket.

India are sitting pretty on 211 for one in 74 overs, with Vijay on 126 and Pujara on 77.
