That's a wrap - Despite the win, India remain 5th in the WTC standings, with their points percentage now at 53.33, while Sri Lanka stay 6th with 33.33. At the moment, Australia are at the top of the table, with South Africa in 2nd. Sri Lanka can no longer win this series, but they will hope to deny India a series win in the second Test in Colombo at the Sinhalese Sports Club Ground, starting on Sunday, 23rd August. That game will begin at 4.30 am GMT (10 am IST). There is plenty of Test action to follow in the meantime, with England and Pakistan facing each other in the first Test later today at 10 am GMT (3.30 pm IST), while the second Test between Australia and Bangladesh will begin on Saturday, 22nd August. Until then, take care and goodbye.
The skipper of India - Shubman Gill says it is a special feeling to win India’s 600th Test. Admits that Sri Lanka put them under some pressure at times, but his side responded well. When asked whether batting is a concern given how India’s second innings unfolded, Gill says it is not an issue for the team. Explains that the aim in the third innings was to build a lead of around 400, but the wicket was not easy to score on, and in their search for quick runs, they lost wickets. Feels Suthar has been bowling magnificently and looks like a very promising player who can serve India for a long time. On Padikkal, Gill says it was great to watch him turn his hundred into a big score in the first innings and then continue to dominate in the second innings. On India’s WTC ambitions, Gill says reaching the final is the ultimate goal. He adds that Test wins do not come easy, making this victory all the more satisfying.
PLAYER OF THE MATCH - Devdutt Padikkal takes home the award, scoring 167 in the first innings and following it up with 44 in the second dig. He reflects on the spread of venues he has featured at, starting in Dharamsala, then Perth, and now Galle. Says he couldn't have asked for anything better and feels great to contribute to the team. On the surface, Padikkal says it showed natural wear and tear as the match wore on, calling it a great Test wicket that played well across all five days, though it began turning noticeably more from day three onward. Ultimately, he feels it came down to which side executed their skills better, and India did exactly that. On being asked why left-handers seemed to have more joy than the right-handed batters, he says it wasn't really a deliberate pattern, more a byproduct of the match being dominated by left-arm spin. On a wicket this slow, he explains, left-handers simply found it easier to negotiate that particular threat than right-handers did.
The captain of Sri Lanka - Dhananjaya de Silva feels Sri Lanka fought hard throughout the Test, particularly from Day 2 onwards. He says the pitch was good to bat on for the first three days, but the fourth innings was always going to be difficult. He points to KL Rahul and Devdutt Padikkal’s partnership on the opening day as a key difference.
Time for the presentation ceremony, which is taking place indoors due to the rain.
Patience pays off - With 288 still needed at the start of the day and 6 wickets in hand, it was a long road ahead for Sri Lanka. The target was always going to be a huge ask, so the focus was on taking it one step at a time. Dhananjaya and Sonal Dinusha gave Sri Lanka a steady start to Day 5, but India remained patient, resisted the temptation to go searching for wickets and waited for the mistakes to come. And eventually, they did. The first came from the Lankan skipper, followed by another from Niroshan Dickwella, leaving Dinusha to fight it out with the tail. His resistance eventually came to an end, and with it went Sri Lanka’s last realistic hope of saving the Test.
Up against it - In the second dig, the challenge for the home side grew even tougher when Dinesh Chandimal was ruled out with a concussion, and his replacement Pasindu Sooriyabandara fell for a golden duck. Sri Lanka soon found themselves reduced to 47/4 late on Day 4. It could have been worse had Jadeja managed to keep his foot behind the line when Dhananjaya de Silva edged one to slip, and that meant the Lankan skipper lived to fight another day.
Building on the lead - India had a healthy lead and the chance to take the game completely away from Sri Lanka, but their second innings was not as straightforward. Sri Lanka kept picking up wickets and made India work for their runs. Padikkal and Rahul got starts but could not convert them, but it was Rishabh Pant who provided the spark. After Pant fell, the tourists could not add much, but the work done in the first innings meant they still managed to set Sri Lanka 372 for an unlikely win.
A fightback from 90/5 - Sri Lanka’s reply got off to a shaky start as India’s bowlers kept the pressure on and reduced them to 90/5. Just when it looked like it could get ugly pretty quickly, Sonal Dinusha and Niroshan Dickwella put together a crucial 146-run partnership. Dickwella’s 80 and Dinusha’s maiden Test century helped the hosts avoid the follow-on. India still secured a 178-run lead, but the home side had at least managed to prevent the damage from becoming far worse.
Where it all began - After Shubman Gill won the toss and opted to bat, India steadily took control as Sri Lanka never quite settled with the ball on the opening day. In the absence of Sai Sudharsan, Devdutt Padikkal grabbed his opportunity with both hands at number 3, scoring his maiden Test hundred and going on to make 167. KL Rahul and Dhruv Jurel also chipped in with valuable contributions as India piled on 462.
Reflecting on the win - KL Rahul says they are very relieved to get the win. Admits that they kept looking overhead at the clouds, as there was a bit of rain predicted later in the day. When he is asked whether the margin of victory was as comfortable as it appeared, he firstly calls it a genuinely great Test match, one played on a pitch that held up well across all five days. He notes there was something in it for the spinners, but also that batters who applied themselves properly could still score. He points to Sri Lanka's Sonal Dinusha as an example, someone who batted beautifully with a clear plan to work the spinners and use his feet. He adds that those who committed fully to a game plan generally found runs, and that seeing fast bowlers contribute wickets too, for both sides, made this an especially satisfying Test to be part of. On being asked whether India were banking on the second new ball during the Dinusha-Nuwantha stand, Rahul says the team knew the new ball would come and that it would be their next best option if wickets weren't forthcoming before that. But adds the mindset throughout the day was simply to keep hitting the right areas. India's approach, he says, was to stay patient and trust that once one partnership broke, two or three wickets would tend to follow in a cluster. On the lack of big individual scores in the match, he calls it a genuinely good Test wicket to bat on, one that rewarded batters who walked out with a clear plan for handling spin or pace. He contrasts that with those who went in hoping to figure things out once they got there, suggesting those were the ones who struggled given there was assistance in the pitch from the very start. He points out that most dismissals came inside the first 15 to 20 balls of an innings, which he feels tells the whole story. And just as the interview concludes, the heavens open up.
India go 1-0 up - In a crucial two-match series in the WTC final race, Shubman Gill’s men have taken the first step with a win in the country's 600th Test. Sri Lanka were playing catch-up for most of the game, and while they showed glimpses of a fight, India always had an answer.

Manav Suthar To Keshara Nuwantha OUT!
OUT! BOWLED! Suthar, fittingly, wraps it up in style, capping off an impressive 6-wicket haul in the process. He also completes a 10-for in this Test, having picked four wickets in the first innings. Sharing the attack with two far more experienced spinners, he has been the standout performer on a Galle surface that offered precious little in return. INDIA WIN BY 165 RUNS and take a 1-0 lead in the two-match Test series. Coming to the ball, Suthar drops it short and around off. Nuwantha goes back to defend, but the ball comes back in, sneaking through the gap between bat and pad before crashing into off stump.

Ravindra Jadeja To Asitha Fernando
Another prolonged appeal for caught behind, but Ahsan Raza stays unmoved. The players around the bat seem to have heard something, but India have burnt all their reviews. Spins away from the batter after drifting in. Asitha Fernando is sucked on the front foot to defend, but the ball spins square and beats the outside edge. UltraEdge shows a flat line. A spike does appear, but that is when the bat hits the ground.

Ravindra Jadeja To Keshara Nuwantha
200 up for Sri Lanka! Pitched full on middle and leg. Keshara Nuwantha lunges in front and clips it into mid-wicket for a quick single.

Ravindra Jadeja To Keshara Nuwantha
A much more convincing appeal for LBW this time around, but the finger stays down. Shubman Gill has taken the review. Darts in a full ball, Nuwantha brings his bat out in front to stab it down but seems to have squeezed out an inside edge onto the front pad. The replays suggest so, and the on-field decision is upheld. India lose their last review.

Manav Suthar To Lahiru Kumara OUT!
OUT! EDGED AND CAUGHT! A game-sealing over from Suthar. Triple whammy for him as he completes a well-deserved 5-wicket haul. The second of his very brief Test career. Tossed up, full and outside off, at 93 kph. Kumara lunges forward to defend but plays for the turn, but the ball goes on with the arm. He gets the faintest outside edge, and Pant collects safely to his left behind the stumps. A prolonged appeal for caught behind and up goes the finger. Kumara walks off without bothering to review. Sri Lanka are 199/9, with India just one wicket away from victory.

Full and straight, around off, safely negotiated by Lahiru as he leans on and smothers the spin.
Suthar is on a Hat Trick as India inch one more step closer. He has been instrumental with the ball in this Test match, picking up wickets at crucial moments. Lahiru Kumara walks in at number 10.

Manav Suthar To Prabath Jayasuriya OUT!
OUT! TIMBER! Just too good for a number 9. This is speared in from around the wicket, short in length in line with the off stump. Prabath Jayasuriya stays back to defend, but the ball lands and straightens off the deck to whistle past the outside edge, and it clatters into the off pole. Two in two for Suthar and he is on a hat-trick now. India need 2 more wickets for the win.
A warm applause for Sonal Dinusha as he trudges off. A magnificent ton in the first innings, and he backed it up with a defiant 84. India are now 3 wickets away from winning. Prabath Jayasuriya is in at number 9.
