| Niroshan Dickwella Wk | 64 | 74 | 8 | 0 | 86.48 |
|
24.3 OUT! That's plumb! Fires this one in line of the stumps, Dickwella gets half-forward and tries to paddle it fine down the leg side. Misses it completely and gets rapped on the front pad. The players appeal and the umpire is quick to raise his finger. Dickwella thinks a bit and opts for the review. Replays show that it was plumb and Sri Lanka have wasted a review. 139/2

| Danushka Gunathilaka | 35 | 44 | 4 | 0 | 79.54 |
|
14 OUT! The pressure strikes and Gunathilaka throws it away! Chahal bowls it around leg, Danushka looks to reverse sweep it. Gets it off the toe end of the bat and Rahul accepts the dolly at covers. The opener is not happy but he has only himself to blame. Chahal deserved the wicket after his good beginning. 74/1

| Kusal Mendis | 36 | 37 | 5 | 0 | 97.29 |
|
27.1 OUT! Axar launches a missile himself! Fires this one on middle at 105 kmph, Mendis dances down the track and tries to launch a rocket of his own. Misses it completely and finds his leg stump rattled. The missile from Axar does the job for India as Kusal's rocket crashes even before taking off. The dangerman departs and the Indian spinners have turned the game in their favour. 150/3

| Upul Tharanga C | 13 | 23 | 0 | 0 | 56.52 |
|
32.2 OUT! Surely this guy has a golden arm! Whatever he touches turns to gold and this is just another example of it! Bowls a high full toss outside off, Upul Tharanga thinks of clearing Dambulla but fails to time it as well as he wants to. Goes straight to the fielder at wide long on. Dhawan accepts it gleefully and Jadhav has a wry smile on his face. The umpires check for the height but replays show that it was a legal delivery for sure. This could turn out to be the differential wicket. 166/4

| Chamara Kapugedera | 1 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 50 |
|
33.2 OUT! Chamara, oh Chamara! Back of a length outside off, Mathews taps it to covers and Kapugedera calls him through for a single. Kohli runs forward to attack the ball, picks it up and then scores a direct hit at the striker's end with a quick throw. It is referred upstairs and replays find Kapugedera short of the crease. That was always risky and Chamara found out that the Indian skipper was too quick for him. Sri Lanka continue to slide! 169/5

| Wanindu Hasaranga | 2 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 40 |
|
34.2 OUT! The young man shows zero temperament! You may be naturally aggressive as a batsman but you also need to respect the match situation. Patel lands it around middle and leg, Hasaranga hurries down to go big over the leg side but miscues it. The ball skies towards deepish wide mid on where Jadhav backpedals and takes a tumbling catch. He gets up and holds his bum in pain. Good effort nonetheless, he never took his eyes off the ball. Surely, this fielding effort will please the skipper. 176/6

| Thisara Perera | 5 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
35.5 OUT! Boom, Boom, Bumrah! Spears in a yorker on middle, Perera looks to play a shot but fails to put bat to ball. It crashes into the stumps and that is it for Thisara. The comeback does not last long and yeah, maybe I jinxed him. 178/7

| Lakshan Sandakan | 5 | 8 | 0 | 0 | 62.5 |
|
38.5 OUT! Axar strikes yet again! Angles it around off, the arm ball, Sandakan looks to turn it through the leg side but is rapped on his pads. The players appeal and the umpire rules it out after thinking for a while. There is no review left to use, Sandakan has to walk back. Mathews continues to lose out on partners. 187/8

| Lasith Malinga | 8 | 6 | 0 | 1 | 133.33 |
|
41.2 OUT! Stumped off a wide, the plan works! Chahal was expecting the charge and bowls it wide outside off. Malinga comes down to have a go but cannot reach it. Dhoni has ages to stump the Lankan pacer. That was well planned. Wide signaled but India won't mind it. 209/9

| Vishwa Fernando | 6 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
43.2 OUT! The two-card trick does it! Bumrah now bowls it on the stumps, fuller length, Fernando plays all around it and has his furniture disturbed. Mathews is left stranded. Sri Lanka bowled out for 216! 216/10

5 OUT! What a way to get run out! Rohit stays behind the line of the ball and pushes it towards the cover region. He calls for a single, Kapugedera rushes towards the ball to his right and has a shy at the non-striker's end. A direct hit is scored and Rohit seems to have lost his bat in the process of completing the run. The players appeal and the umpire goes upstairs. Replays show that the bat got stuck just before the crease and Sharma's front leg was in the air when the ball hit the stumps. A lazy effort from Rohit and he has no one else to blame. The replays also showed that Rohit didn't put his head down and run straight up, in fact he kept watching the ball in between which hampered his pace. The bat getting stuck was unfortunate though. Anyway, Sri Lanka have their first wicket! 23/1
