SL 75-5 (31 ovs) vs India 610-6 | Scorecard


Chandimal taps Umesh on the off-side for a single and Dickwella also does the same to get off the mark.

The two batsmen then take a single each off Jadeja's next over before India make a change from the other end as Ishant replaces Umesh.

Chandimal throws his bat at a wide delivery but is beaten and is lucky not to have edged it.

Ishant then gets one to rise sharply as Chandimal is struck high on the bat as the ball goes on to hit the arm which saves the edge from carrying through to the slips.

The next ball is short but slips down the leg side as wicketkeeper Saha does well to save it with a full length dive to his left.

Ishant then gets one to hold it's line as Chandimal plays down the wrong line and is beaten. Top stuff from the pacer!

Change from both ends as Ashwin comes in to replace Jadeja, who picked up two wickets in the morning session.

Ashwin gets one to turn sharply into the right-hander Chandimal who is beaten and is lucky not have to gloved it. He looks to break free as he attempts the careless sweep but can't beat the fielder at square leg.

Ishant cripples Sri Lanka further with the wicket of Dickwella, who gets the edge and is caught at second slip by Kohli for four.

Sri Lanka collapsing in their second innings as they are reduced to 76 for five, still needing 329 runs to avoid the innings defeat.
