SL vs IND Live Cricket Score

10.1 OUT! A successful review from Sri Lanka this time. The bowling change has worked wonders. The dangerman Dhawan has to depart. Bowls it full on middle, the ball straightens a little. Dhawan tries to sweep but misses and is struck on the pads. The Lankans appeal and this time the umpire gives it not out. Dickwella wants it to be reviewed straightaway and Chandimal obliges and reviews. They go upstairs. Replays show that there was no bat involved. The ball has pitched in line, strikes him in line and is hitting the leg stump. Three reds the umpire has to overturn his decision again. Big wicket for the home side. Dilruwan is ecstatic.  56/1

30.4 OUT! Yes, no, yes, no and a run out. A big misunderstanding between the two batsmen. Tosses it up on off, Rahul pushes it towards covers and sets off for a run. Pujara first obliges but then stops in between the pitch and sends Rahul back who also was halfway down. Chandimal is quick to the ball and fires in a throw to Dickwella who collects the ball and whips the bails off. Rahul is well short of his ground. He is not happy at all. He walks back dejected. He fails to covert it big once again. He is run out for the first time in his Test career. Also, make it 5 out of 7 now - Another time where he's been dismissed on a score between 50-70. India have lost both their openers now.  109/2

92 OUT! No it is not going over the stumps! A successful review by Sri Lanka and it is the perfect start to the day for them. Karunaratne is the one who strikes. Lands it on a length on off, jags back in. Pujara tries to defend it but misses and is struck on the back thigh. An appeal goes up and the umpire gives it not out. Dickwella straightaway asks the captain to review and Chandimal obliges. They go upstairs. The replays show there is no inside edge and Hawk Eye shows three reds. The decision has to be overturned. Pujara has to depart after playing a fine, fine knock. The 217-run partnership has been broken. Karunaratne gets his first Test wicket. Can Sri Lanka now build on this?  350/4

38.5 OUT! Angelo, you beauty! A great reflex catch by the ex-skipper. Flatter and outside off, Kohli tries to cut it but gets an outside edge which flies to Mathews at first slip who takes a brilliant catch diving to his right. Kohli is not happy with himself. That was too close to cut maybe. Never the less, a big wicket for Sri Lanka and they are right back into the game now.  133/3

110.5 OUT! MAIDEN INTERNATIONAL WICKET FOR PUSHPAKUMARA! Once again Rahane dances down the track. Malinda anticipates it and drops his length short, gets it to spin away as well. Ajinkya goes through with his heave but misses this time around. The ball sneaks past him and Dickwella behind the stumps stays composed, collects the ball and takes off the bails. Rahane stepped down the track one time too many and it did him in. Pushpakumara is delighted and why won't he be. It's his first wicket after getting such a hammering. The centurion departs. Can Sri Lanka trigger a collapse here or will we see another partnership building?  413/5

121.5 OUT! Herath gets his revenge! Lovely bowling from the wily veteran. Just like the first session, the Lankans get an early breakthrough. Flatter on off stump, Ashwin makes room to cut it but gets beaten and the ball takes the off stump. He gets to his fifty and departs the next ball. A nothing shot from Ashwin. Rangana gets his second.  451/6

152.1 OUT! Saha departs after playing a good knock. That turned and bounced off the wicket. Tosses it on off stump, the ball turns sharply. Saha tries to push it but gets beaten by the away turn and in the process drags his back leg out of the crease. Dickwella collects the ball and whips the bails off in a flash. Saha walks back to a standing ovation from his coach.  568/8

132.4 OUT! Pandya's cameo comes to an end. Malinda gives it air on off, Pandya comes down the track and tries to go big but holes out to Mathews at long off. Pushpakumara gets his second and he is happy about it. India are now looking for quick runs here.  496/7

154.5 OUT! Shami holes out! The 9th one down for India. Shami departs after doing his job. Herath drags his length back on middle, Shami tries to pull but gets a top edge towards Tharanga at deep mid-wicket who pouches it safely. Rangana gets his fourth. India are 2 runs away form 600.  598/9

13.4 OUT! Ashwin strikes! The ball finally takes the outside edge. Karunaratne's struggle comes to an end. Ashwin tosses it up on off, the ball turns away and takes the outside edge to first slip where Rahane takes it comfortably. Sri Lanka are in deep trouble here. They have lost their second.  33/2

2 OUT! Rahul has managed to hold on to it! Slanting into the batsman, Tharanga stays back and works it on the leg side. Rahul at short leg hops to get out of harm's way. But, the ball hits him on the shoulders and deflects into his stomach region and he manages to hang on to it. He is up in celebration and then Kohli joins him. Both perform a combined dab. One can feel for Tharanga, such an unlucky dismissal! Ashwin has drawn first blood. He has the highest dismissals (95) by a spinner, opening the bowling (1 or 2) for his side.  0/1

25.4 OUT! UMESH STRIKES! Kohli having dropped one makes no mistake this time. Umesh bowls it on leg stump, Mendis tries to flick but the ball stops on him and takes the outer half and lobs up to mid on, who pedals back and takes an easy catch. Sri Lanka are in dire straits here.  64/4

24.1 OUT! Jadeja gets his man! Good field placement by Virat there. Full ball on leg stump, Chandimal shuffles across and sweeps it straight to Pandya at backward square leg, who takes an easy catch. He was the only man there and a couple of yards away from him could have fetched Dinesh a boundary but unfortunately he hit straight to Hardik. An early wicket for India and it is that of the skipper, who is walking back to the hut. The visitors are ecstatic!  60/3

34 OUT! Sensational from Pujara! Great reflex catch there. Mathews can't believe it. Ashwin floats it on off, Angelo plays it with the spin towards leg gully where Pujara dives low to his left and takes an excellent one-handed catch. He starts walking back but the umpires ask him to stop. They go upstairs to check whether it is a clean catch or not. The replays show that he has taken that cleanly and Mathews has to walk back. Sri Lanka have half their side back in the hut. This is a huge wicket for India and you can see by their celebration how happy they are!  117/5

41.1 OUT! Dickwella oversmarts himself! Shami strikes with his first ball today. Niroshan kneels down and looks to scoop the length ball, gets a faint inside edge and it deflects onto the stumps. Such an unnecessary shot to play. He did all the hard work against the spinners, dealt with them nicely but in the end overdid himself, going after the first ball from Mohammed. SRI LANKA ARE STILL 472 RUNS BEHIND!  150/7

34.5 OUT! 150th Test wicket for Jadeja! He is the second fastest Indian to do so. Quicker on middle, turning away. De Silva tries to defend it off the front foot but gets beaten by the turn and the ball takes the off pole. That was a beautiful delivery. Not a good return for Dhananjaya as he bags a golden duck. The Sri Lankan batsmen are falling like a pack of cards. Jadeja gets his third.  122/6

47.2 OUT! Ashwin gets through Perera's defence. Does him in with the flight. Lands it around off, Dilruwan looks to push it on the off side but plays down the wrong line. The ball goes past the inside edge and shatters the woodwork. 4th of the innings for Ashwin. He is continuing his good run.  171/9

42 OUT! Timber! Shami on fire! The perfect delivery for a tailender. He comes steaming in and spears it very full on middle and off, tails in sharply too. Herath is yorked and sees his woodwork disturbed. India just a couple wickets away from bowling out the hosts, depending on whether Pradeep comes out to bat.  152/8

49.4 OUT! Dragged on! 26th fifer for Ashwin! He tosses it up outside off, Pradeep plants his front foot across and after feeling that the ball won't spin much tries to leave it. However, he is late in it and the ball takes the inside edge and rattles the stumps. That's the end of the Sri Lankan innings. THEY ARE BUNDLED OUT FOR 183! This is their lowest score against India at the SSC.  183/10

95.4 OUT! The centurion has to depart! End of a superb knock. The Indian camp shakes his hand to congratulate him on his knock as he walks off. It had to be a very good delivery to get him out. Flatter on leg stump, spits off the wicket. Karunaratne tries to defend it but the ball gets big on him, takes the glove and lobs behind the keeper. Rahane runs towards the ball from first slip and takes the easiest of catches. Dimuth could have done nothing with that ball. Half the side is back in the hut now. An early wicket after the break, just what India wanted! Sri Lanka still trail by 129 runs.  310/5

3 OUT! Cleaned up! Yadav gets his man. Tharanga's dismal match ends. Umesh comes steaming in and bowls an inswinger around middle and off. Upul looks to drive, leaving a big gap between bat and pad. It's enough for the cherry to sneak through and rattle the stumps. Yadav draws first blood. 9th wicket in the day already!  7/1

54.5 OUT! Hardik Pandya with the vital breakthrough! Bowls a cutter a touch ahead of a length around off, angling in. Mendis prods forward to defend but gets an inside edge and lobs behind off the back pad. Saha there, dives full stretch to his left and takes the catch. The Indians are excited and start celebrating. The umpire asks his partner whether the catch has been taken cleanly but then they go upstairs and the soft signal is 'OUT'. The replay shows that the catch is clean and Mendis' stay in the middle comes to an end. The 191-run stand is broken. Kusal walks back dejected but he should be proud of his knock as it came under such a pressure situation. India look to be heading to stumps with their tails up.  198/2

72.2 OUT! Pushpakumara what have you done? That was a needless shot there. Malinda tries to bring out the reverse slog. Ashwin bowls it quicker and full on middle, spinning in, Pushpakumara misses and it hits the leg pole. He was playing so well and only he would know why did he do that! India get their first wicket of the day and it's none other than Ashwin who provides it.  238/3

73.5 OUT! Chandimal has to depart there! As the saying goes if you get one, you soon get another one. Jadeja gets his first of the innings. Flatter on off, turning away. Chandimal prods forward to defend and gets an outside edge to Rahane at first slip who takes a good low catch diving to his right. This is a huge wicket for India. Has Pushpakumara's wicket opened the floodgates? Can the visitors now trigger a collapse?  241/4

97.3 OUT! What a catch, Saha! He has been brilliant with the gloves on a wicket which has been bouncing and turning and does well to dismiss Mathews. The ball before this kept low and this one bounced more than Angelo expected. Quicker through the air outside off, turning away. Mathews goes for the cut but the ball gets big on him and takes the outside edge to Saha who takes a very sharp catch at chest height to his right. He has been sharp as a hawk. The ex-skipper has to depart and this is a huge wicket. Another one bites the dust and India are closing in on victory.  315/6

115.1 OUT! Catching practice! Very full outside off, Dickwella makes room, crouches low and glides it straight to Rahane at gully. There's a doubt of whether it went straight off the bat or it went on the bounce. However umpire Oxenford is convinced and rules Dickwella out. The frustration for India ends, as the 41-run stand is broken. The visitors are just one wicket shy of victory.  384/9

99.3 OUT! Another one bites the dust! It is the Saha and Jadeja partnership again! Jadeja gets a 4-fer. Fires it on off, Perera comes down the track and tries to go big but is beaten by the spin. Saha collects the ball and whips the bails out in a flash and Dilruwan is way down the wicket. Jadeja is ecstatic. India are just three wickets away from a win.  321/7

105.4 OUT! Edged and taken! 9th fifer for Jadeja in Tests! He has made full use of the pitch on offer. Serves it around off, de Silva covers his stumps and hangs his bat in the air away from the body. Gets an outside edge and it goes towards Rahane at first slip, who takes an excellent low catch to his right. He is such a phenomenal fielder for India at that position. The umpire though takes it upstairs to have a look at the catch. The third umpire rules it out and Dhananjaya has to walk back. His attacking stint is over and his comeback Test hasn't been too kind for him.  343/8

116.5 OUT! Final nail in the coffin! Ashwin gives it a nice loop and tosses it up outside off. Pradeep kneels down and goes for the slog sweep. Gets it off the toe end and the ball lobs high in the air on the leg side. It goes straight to Dhawan at wide mid on, who completes the catch to finish off the proceedings. And, the celebration starts! INDIA WIN BY AN INNINGS AND 53 RUNS! India have sealed the series as well and it's their 8th Test series on the trot.  386/10
