Commentary

  • 26.3

    Mohammed Shami to Dasun Shanaka. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, to mid on for no runs, fielded by Pujara.

    What a finish that was to a Test. Light has saved Sri Lanka from certain defeat while India will feel that they were a few overs from victory. For most of the five days Sri Lanka were in the driving seat but when it counted India were dominant today and gave themselves the chance to take the win.

    A couple of stand-out performances from both teams including Suranga Lakmal for his seven wickets in the match while Virat Kohli once again showed his class with a brilliant century.

    Let's hope the rest of the series is as exhilarating as this one.

    Dilruwan Perera b Bhuvneshwar Kumar 0 (7)

    OUT! Bowled. Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Dilruwan Perera. Seaming away length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, missed. What an absolute jaffer of a delivery. Aiming towards middle stump but it seams once pitching and knocks out the off stump. That is unplayable. India still have hope while Chandimal is pacing around anxiously in the dressing room.

  • 24.3

    FOUR! Mohammed Shami to Dasun Shanaka. In-swinging length ball, outside off stump on the front foot flick, well timed past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. Late tail back into Shanaka but he has gone with it and there is plenty of space in the outfield.

  • 23.2

    APPEAL! OUT changed by umpire to NOT OUT after REFERRAL. Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Dilruwan Perera. Seaming in length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, hit pad for no runs, appeal made for L.B.W. Is that two in two? Kumar has Dilruwan LBW but the batsman has reviewed straight away. Nipped back but it has hit Perera on the back leg, missing is the verdict on Hawk-Eye.

  • 23.1
    Niroshan Dickwella lbw b Bhuvneshwar Kumar 27 (36)

    OUT! L.B.W. Verified by umpire after REFERRAL. Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Niroshan Dickwella. Length ball, outside off stump moves in front flick, hit pad. Got him this time. Walks across his stumps but he hasn't got far enough across to save him from being LBW. Hits him in-line and umpire's call on the stumps. Big wicket in the context of this game.

  • 21.4

    APPEAL! Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Niroshan Dickwella. Seaming in length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, inside edge to wicketkeeper for no runs, by Saha, appeal made for Caught. More drama at Eden Gardens. The ball has brushed the inside of the bat but is dieing as it reaches Saha. Soft signal is out but the third umpire is going to overturn the decision. It seems as though the ball has bounced just before reaching the keeper.
