Ishant Sharma got the first wicket after Sri Lanka opted to bat first. He claimed the wicket of Dimuth Karunaratne.

Ishant's success was followed by that of Varun Aaron (unseen) who dismissed the other opener - Kaushal Silva.

Kumar Sangakkara - playing his penultimate Test - got a rousing welcome but his stay in the middle was short. He fell for 5 - becoming Ashwin's first victim of the day.

Ashwin would then go on to remove Lahiru Thirimanne.

Captain Angelo Mathews waged a brave war and scored 64 before falling to wily Ashwin's spin.

Dinesh Chandimal also hit a crucial 59 but like Mathews - fell at a crucial stage. He was removed by Amit Mishra.

The tail collapsed without a fight for 183 as Ashwin finished with 6 for 46 - the best figures for an Indian in all Tests played in Sri Lanka.
Zoom
India's start was not the best as KL Rahul fell to Dhammika Prasad removed him for 7.

Rohit Sharma too couldn't do much and departed for 9.
Shikhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli eventually managed to take India to 128/2.
