Mohammed Siraj to Lahiru Udara, out Caught by Saransh Jain!! Sri Lanka's opening woes continue.. India have an early wicket. Well-directed short ball, it is at a right height - not too short so Udara can leave, around shoulder high so he can play, Udara takes his eyes off the ball and pulls to fine leg. Saransh is well in from the rope, he comes forward and bends down to take a good catch. Lahiru Udara c Saransh Jain b Mohammed Siraj 3(15)

Mohammed Siraj to Lahiru Udara, THATS OUT!! Caught!

Many players test average not as good as 1st innings. This morning Bowling Coach Morne Morkal told to cricinfo " We will not bats again, 'cause bad weather coming up "

Luck is our side as SL all out - but SL says " we will win koz india not have Potential to score 135 - 145 in Last innings"

We should Accept this challenge & Try to remove next 9 under 300 or so.

22/1* Mishara in Great nick, he should go koz he scores very fast

Partnership building

Wicket lo

PK is trying very hard to test the batsmen with his powerful bowling.

Prasidh Krishna to Pasindu Sooriyabandara, no run, Prasidh shortens the length on off, Sooriyabandara drops the bottom-hand and defends it to the on-side

9.2

SL 2nd Innings-- 30/1

Manav Suthar to Pasindu Sooriyabandara, 3 runs, a chance and Siraj spills the chance, was always a tough chance, he ran in from deep mid-wicket and then stretched forward on the dive, got his hands on it, but down it goes.

Lankan picking on Suthar and Jain for runs

"Rough expert" Jadeja will be more successful as the innings progress

12:01 Local Time, 06:31 GMT, 12:01 IST: India took four wickets in the session and still has 130 runs in the bank. Sri Lanka fought hard after being made to follow-on. They lost Lahiru Udara early, holing out to long leg, but Kamil Mishara and Pasindu Sooriyabandara took the attack to the Indian spinners. Both Manav Suthar and Saransh Jain conceded runs, and it took Ravindra Jadeja's wily experience to dismiss Mishara and end the 58-run second-wicket stand. Sooriyabandara has looked promising, though and will look to convert this start into a big innings. There's turn on the pitch, but it still looks like a decent batting wicket. Can India continue to chip away? Or will Sri Lanka build on this start? We'll be back at 12:40 pm for the resumption
