With two days gone in the Test match, Sri Lanka once again find themselves in a sinking position. Asked to follow-on here, they will have to play beyond their ability if they are to make a match of this come Day 3 on Sunday.

Overs 37.4 | Score 135 all out
Sri Lanka are in the deep hole once again as India enforce the follow-on. With more than three days remaining in the game, this is doom for the hosts.

Overs 26 | Score 112/6 | Chandimal 44 (67) ; Pushpakumara 1 (12)
Sri Lanka sink further. India are on top and not getting much of a fight from the hosts who are folding themselves. It will be tough for Lanka to even avoid the follow-on.

Overs 18 | Score 74/4 | Chandimal 18 (41) ; Dickwella 22 (25)
Sri Lanka now getting a bit of a partnership here. The first task will be to avoid the follow-on. Still a lot of cricket remaining in the day.

Overs 11 | Score 48/4 | Chandimal 7 (20) ; Dickwella 7 (4)
Sri Lanka are once again in major trouble. They have lost four quick wickets with almost nothing on the board. Even to save the follow-on, they will have to play out of their skins.

Overs 122 | Score 487 /7 | Pandya 108 (93) ; Kuldeep 3 (14)
Hardik Pandya slams his maiden International century, and he did so in some style by becoming the fastest Indian to do so batting at No. 8 or lower. It's time for LUNCH at Pallekele.

Overs 110 | Score 400 /7 | Pandya 37 (51) ; Kuldeep 26 (70)
400-runs up for Team India as Pandya, Kuldeep look to be building a sound partnership towards the end of India's first innigns with the bat.

Overs 98 | Score 360 /7 | Pandya 13 (21) ; Kuldeep 11 (27)
Sri Lanka have started things on a stronger note. Sent back Wriddhiman Saha real early into the day and now seems to be troubling both Pandya and new batsman at crease Kuldeep Yadav. Probably a 600 this time is way far to go for the Indians.
