Batsman | R | B | 4s | 6s | SR |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Shikhar Dhawan | 190 | 168 | 31 | 0 | 113.09 |
c Angelo Mathews b Nuwan Pradeep
54.1 OUT! Dhawan throws it away! Good length delivery outside off, Shikhar comes down the track and tries to go over the fielder at mid off. Mistimes it and the ball goes straight to Mathews who makes no mistake. A fantastic knock comes to an end and he misses out on his first double hundred by just 10 runs. Sri Lanka will want to pick up a couple of quick wickets now to get back into the game. 280/2

Abhinav Mukund | 12 | 26 | 2 | 0 | 46.15 |
c Niroshan Dickwella b Nuwan Pradeep
7.3 OUT! Poor shot! Length ball outside off, Mukund hangs his bat out for it. The ball takes the edge and carries to the keeper. An easy catch for Dickwella and Abhinav continues to not make the most of the chances presented to him. A timely wicket for Sri Lanka. The change of ends works for Pradeep. 27/1
|
|||||
Cheteshwar Pujara | 153 | 265 | 13 | 0 | 57.73 |
c Niroshan Dickwella b Nuwan Pradeep
97.4 OUT! Pradeep takes another one! Nuwan bowls one in the area just outside off, Pujara has to play at it but the ball straightens after pitching. It goes off the outside edge and Dickwella accepts the catch. Commentator's curse maybe. End of a brilliant, brilliant knock by Cheteshwar Pujara though. He gets a rousing reception from his teammates. Sri Lanka owe the success to Pradeep. 423/4
|
|||||
Virat Kohli C | 3 | 8 | 0 | 0 | 37.5 |
c Niroshan Dickwella b Nuwan Pradeep
56.4 OUT! Big wicket for Sri Lanka! Shorter in length around middle and leg, Kohli looks to pull it but seems to have missed it. The keeper takes the catch and appeals. It is a loud one and with the umpire saying no, Herath goes for the review after some consultation. Replays show that it is touch and go. There seems to be a faint nick on that one. Ultra Edge takes its time and since there is a small deflection when the ball went past the bat the third umpire thinks it is good enough to be given out. Kohli is not sure of it as he walks off the field. Ideal start for the home side after the break. Pradeep has taken all the three wickets to fall so far. Remember, Kohli had a bit of trouble against the short balls in the ODIs in West Indies. Sri Lanka did their home work well. 286/3
|
|||||
Ajinkya Rahane | 57 | 130 | 3 | 0 | 43.84 |
c Dimuth Karunaratne b Lahiru Kumara
101.1 OUT! Kumara strikes at last after being wayward all day yesterday! He bowls it full and outside off, Rahane looks to drive it through but gets an outside edge towards first slip. Dimuth Karunaratne takes a good catch to his right. That is a very good start to the day for Lahiru. Rahane will feel he threw away his wicket there. 432/5
|
|||||
Ravichandran Ashwin | 47 | 60 | 7 | 0 | 78.33 |
c Niroshan Dickwella b Nuwan Pradeep
115.1 OUT! Pradeep gets his fifer! Comes around the wicket and bowls a short delivery down the leg side. Ashwin goes for the pull, ends up gloving it and the ball flies through to the keeper. Dickwella accepts it gleefully and the Indian offie has to start walking just three runs short of the fifty. A good innings comes to an end. Nuwan gets his first fifer of his Test career. 495/7
|
|||||
Wriddhiman Saha Wk | 16 | 32 | 3 | 0 | 50 |
c Dilruwan Perera b Rangana Herath
114.1 OUT! Herath strikes and gets his first of the match! Tossed up around leg, Saha steps out and tries to go downtown. Hits it straight to the fielder at mid on. Dilruwan Perera pouches a safe catch and Wriddhiman has to walk back to the hut. It's taken 32 overs to land the Sri Lankan skipper his first wicket. 491/6
|
|||||
Hardik Pandya | 50 | 49 | 5 | 3 | 102.04 |
c sub b Lahiru Kumara
133.1 OUT! Kumara gets his third! Short delivery from round the wicket, Pandya goes for the big shot. Mistimes his pull and the ball balloons in the square leg region. Dhananjaya de Silva, the substitute fielder, settles under it and takes a well-judged catch. Sri Lanka have got the final wicket and INDIA ARE ALL OUT FOR 600! 600/10
|
|||||
Ravindra Jadeja | 15 | 24 | 2 | 0 | 62.5 |
b Nuwan Pradeep
121.2 OUT! Pradeep, you beauty! Yorker on off and middle, Jadeja looks to clip it through but misses the ball. It clatters into the stumps and that is it for Jadeja. He has been worked over brilliantly here. Best figures in First Class cricket for Nuwan. The umpire asks Jadeja to wait to check for the no ball but replays find him fine. Brilliant, just brilliant by Pradeep. 517/8
|
|||||
Mohammed Shami | 30 | 30 | 0 | 3 | 100 |
c Upul Tharanga b Lahiru Kumara
129.5 OUT! Finally the short ball ploy works! Shorter in length around off, Shami looks to go over the leg side with his pull. He miscues it to Upul Tharanga who takes it safely near the ropes at deep mid-wicket. End of a promising stand for India. 579/9

lbw b Umesh Yadav
1.5 OUT! Umesh, you beauty! Fires a fuller delivery around middle, nips back in after pitching. Karunaratne tries to clip it on the leg side but gets beaten for pace. Misses it completely and the ball sneaks through and thuds into the pads. The players appeal and the umpire takes his time to raise the finger. Upul Tharanga convinces his partner to opt for the review for some reason. Replays show that there was no bat involved. Ball Tracker indicates that it pitched in line, impact was in line and was clearly hitting the stumps. No doubt at all and the opener has to walk back to the hut. Umesh Yadav has struck early. Sri Lanka have also wasted a review. 7/1

Upul Tharanga | 64 | 93 | 10 | 0 | 68.81 |
run out (Abhinav Mukund)
34 OUT! Smart fielding, Mukund! Floated around middle and leg, Tharanga dances down the track and looks to drive. He gets an inside edge onto his pads and the ball deflects towards silly point. Mukund the fielder is quick to throw it back to the keeper. Upul dives to get into his crease and at the same time Saha takes off the bails and appeals. The umpire goes upstairs this time. Replays show that Tharanga had made it in but his bat bounced up due to the impact on the handle as he dived. Strangely, the batsman was confident at first but now he has to walk back to the hut. A brilliant knock from the opener comes to an end. 125/4
|

Danushka Gunathilaka | 16 | 37 | 2 | 0 | 43.24 |
c Shikhar Dhawan b Mohammed Shami
14.2 OUT! Very poor shot! Slants a good length ball outside off, Gunathilaka looks to flay it away but gets an outside edge towards first slip. Shikhar Dhawan accepts the gift but one wonders if the batsman needs to play such shots. A poor shot indeed with your team trailing by 532 runs. Remember they are a batsman short with no Asela Gunaratne. 68/2
|
|||||
Kusal Mendis | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
c Shikhar Dhawan b Mohammed Shami
15 OUT! Easy as you like! Good length outside off, Mendis looks to poke at this one. The ball goes off the outside edge and Shikhar Dhawan takes another good catch at first slip. Shami has taken two in two and Sri Lanka are in real trouble now. 68/3
|
|||||
Angelo Mathews | 83 | 130 | 11 | 1 | 63.84 |
c Virat Kohli b Ravindra Jadeja
58.5 OUT! What a soft dismissal! Floats it around middle, Mathews backs away and looks to go over covers. The ball goes straight to Virat Kohli at short cover who takes it gleefully. That is a waste of a wicket, Angelo should not have played that in the air. India get a breakthrough out of nowhere and the change of end works for Jadeja. End of a fighting knock though. 205/6
|
|||||
Niroshan Dickwella Wk | 8 | 15 | 1 | 0 | 53.33 |
c Abhinav Mukund b Ravichandran Ashwin
39.2 OUT! What a superb catch! Ashwin bowls it around off, Dickwella looks to defend but gets an outside edge. Mukund at silly point reacts brilliantly to take a stunner with his right hand. That is an absolutely superb catch by the Indian opener. He alone has been responsible for the last two wickets. Sri Lanka still trail by 457 runs. 143/5

c Ajinkya Rahane b Ravindra Jadeja
66.2 OUT! Jadeja strikes! Shorter around off, Herath again goes for the fancy reverse sweep. Cannot connect it with the bat, but he maybe gloves it and the ball balloons over the keeper's head. Rahane from slip goes a couple of steps behind to take a simple catch. The Indians appeal and the umpire raises his finger. Herath seems confident and is quick to opt for the review. Ultra Edge confirms that the ball had made contact with the glove before going off his forearm and the skipper has to walk back to the hut. 241/7
|
|||||
Nuwan Pradeep | 10 | 26 | 1 | 0 | 38.46 |
b Hardik Pandya
73.5 OUT! Pandya gets his maiden Test wicket! A fuller length delivery around middle and off, straightens a touch. Pradeep looks to put bat to ball but gets beaten by the away movement. Misses it completely and finds his timber disturbed. India finally get the breakthrough and the 39-run stand comes to an end. 280/8
|
|||||
Lahiru Kumara | 2 | 12 | 0 | 0 | 16.66 |
b Ravindra Jadeja
78.3 OUT! Jadeja finishes things off! Lands it just outside off, spins in, Kumara plays down the wrong line and is bowled. SRI LANKA BOWLED OUT FOR 291! India have gained their highest first innings lead in a Test in Sri Lanka - 309! 291/9

c Danushka Gunathilaka b Dilruwan Perera
4 OUT! What a soft dismissal! Short and wide from Perera, Dhawan looks to smash it but the ball goes of the splice straight to point. The fielder Gunathilaka takes the catch and Shikhar cannot believe his luck. 11 out of 10 times, he will hit that to the fence but not this time, for some reason. That was a really soft dismissal. 19/1

Abhinav Mukund | 81 | 116 | 8 | 0 | 69.82 |
lbw b Danushka Gunathilaka
46.3 OUT! Gunathilaka gets his man! Drifting in from around off, the ball skids with the arm. Mukund prods forward and tries to defend. Is beaten and gets rapped on the pads. The players appeal and the umpire after thinking a bit raises his finger. Abhinav after consulting his skipper, opts for the review. Replays confirm that there was no bat involved. The Ball Tracker shows that it pitched outside off, impact was in line and was going on to hit the stumps. Three reds, so that means, the umpire was right and Mukund has to walk back to the hut with the rest. He will be terribly disappointed, you don't get chances to play for the national side as easily and there was a century for the taking for him. STUMPS ON DAY 3! 189/3

16.5 OUT! Good field placement! Angling into the pads from a fuller length, Pujara shuffles a touch and clips it. Ends up doing so straight towards the fielder at leg gully. Mendis fumbles the first time but holds onto it on the second attempt. Pujara has to walk back and Kumara is really happy. 56/2

b Ravichandran Ashwin
73.2 OUT! I jinxed him, sorry Dimuth Karunaratne! Ashwin bowls it around off, Karunaratne sits down to sweep that but the ball turns a touch. He gets an under edge and the ball crashes into the stumps. That is it for the opener. He didn't play a single bad shot till then but he played one and perished. He lost the battle of patience there. That is how the game of cricket is. I just blurted out that he would have been unlucky if he missed out on a ton and now he gets out trying to sweep one off his stumps. A pretty long, lonely walk to the pavilion for him. India two wickets away! 240/6

Upul Tharanga | 10 | 10 | 2 | 0 | 100 |
b Mohammed Shami
2.5 OUT! The dropped catch has not cost India anything! Shami angles it on a back of a length, Tharanga is cramped for room as he aims to play at it with an angled bat. The ball goes off the inside edge and cannons onto the stumps. Virat Kohli will be a relieved man. India get the breakthrough early. Think a lot of batsmen today get out trying to play a shot than trying to defend. Tells you about the positive mindset but also about players not backing their defenses. Danushka Gunathilaka is the new man in. 22/1
|
|||||
Danushka Gunathilaka | 2 | 8 | 0 | 0 | 25 |
c Cheteshwar Pujara b Umesh Yadav
5.4 OUT! Two soft dismissals for Gunathilaka! He threw his bat at a wide one in the first innings and now has picked out the fielder on the other side. Not good. Coming to the ball, it was a full length delivery around middle, Gunathilaka shaped to clip it but the bat turned in his hands. Pujara completed the simplest of catches at mid-wicket and that is it for Danushka. He was picked thanks to his ODI form but he needs to be a lot more circumspect in the whites. Sri Lanka two down already! 29/2
|
|||||
Kusal Mendis | 36 | 71 | 3 | 0 | 50.70 |
c Wriddhiman Saha b Ravindra Jadeja
30.5 OUT! India review successfully! Jadeja fires it outside off, the ball skids on, Mendis goes back to punch but seems to have edged it. The keeper collects the ball and appeals hard. The players are convinced and ask Kohli to go for the review. The Indian skipper obliges. Ultra Edge detects a spike as the ball goes past the bat and hence the onfield call has to be turned over. Kusal Mendis has to walk back to the hut after playing a good knock. 108/3
|
|||||
Angelo Mathews | 2 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 20 |
c Hardik Pandya b Ravindra Jadeja
34.3 OUT! What a poor, poor, poor, poor shot! Jadeja floats it around off, Angelo Mathews thinks they are chasing 500 in 20 overs for some reason. He comes down to go big down the ground, the ball goes off the leading edge and Hardik Pandya takes the catch coming forward from backward point. That is a poor choice of shot. You can be as positive as you want to but cannot be reckless like that. You are the most senior batsman at the moment, and if that is how you are going to bat, it does not inspire much confidence to a nation struggling to compete in this format of the game. 116/4

Niroshan Dickwella Wk | 67 | 94 | 10 | 0 | 71.27 |
c Wriddhiman Saha b Ravichandran Ashwin
61.5 OUT! Partnership broken! Floats it outside off, Dickwella shapes to sweep that one but gets an edge which carries to Saha. The keeper takes a good catch, the players appeal and the umpire raises his finger. A wicket at last for Ashwin. Karunaratne asks about the review to Niroshan but the latter acknowledges that he hit that one. An important breakthrough for the visitors. A fine knock comes to an end. 217/5

He lunges forward and takes it inches off the ground. That is another wicket for Ashwin and India inch closer to victory. 240/7

Lahiru Kumara | 8 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
c Mohammed Shami b Ravindra Jadeja
76.5 OUT! DONE AND DUSTED! Loops this one outside off, Kumara loses his patience here and goes for the big shot. Gets a top edge on it and the ball balloons in the air. Mohammed Shami calls for it from mid off and takes it safely. Rangana Herath and Asela Gunaratne won't come out to bat and hence, INDIA WIN BY 304 RUNS! 245/8
