so rahul dropped the follow on - Gaurav Kalra (@gauravkalra75) Sri Lankan batting crisis against Indian pace bowling highlights the virtuosity and value of Pujara's knock on this pitch...- Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) 5-wkt hauls for Indian pacers 23 Kapil Dev 11 Zaheer 10 J Srinath 7 V Prasad/I Pathan/I Sharma - Mohandas Menon (@mohanstatsman) Dear KL Rahul I thought it was replay of 1st innings Oh wait, nah it's not - je t'aime (@KingViratian) Will Rohit Sharma ever carry his bat? Yes. When? When he is the 12th man, carrying bats to batsmen in the middle.- Srini Mama (@SriniMama16) Three down at 7 and Rohit Sharma walking in must be like the biggest nightmare of any captain that ever played Test Cricket.- Amit Phansalkar (@asuph) Day 3: Play called off. India 21/3 at stumps, lead by 132 runs. - Sportskeeda (@Sportskeeda) And now rain halts play. And it is pouring down heavily. India are 21 for 3 at the moment. Top 3 dismissed with just 7 runs on the board! - Sportskeeda (@Sportskeeda) And now Rahane goes. This is not looking good for India. More trouble now! KL Rahul is castled. India are 2 for 2 as captain Kohli strides out. 1st innings centurion Pujara is out for a second-ball duck. Bad start for India. India still have a healthy lead of 111. There's the final wicket. Sri Lanka all out for 201. Excellent recovery considering they were tottering at 47 for 6 at one stage. That was also Ishant's 300th wicket in First class cricket. Congratulations Ishant Sharma on your 5-wicket haul! It's been a terrific spell. - Sportskeeda (@Sportskeeda) That's Tea! Sri Lanka are still fighting. They are 175 for 8 and Herath is looking assured. In fact, he is back! Well done Dhammika. Maybe the injury isn't too serious. We are still not sure if Dhammika would come out to bat. Amit Mishra is rewarded for his patience. Kaushal Silva is out lbw. Sri Lanka are 8 down. Kusal top edges Ishant and Virat takes a smart catch. The skipper shows his aggressive side by giving the batsman a send-off. Ishant Sharma has now bowled 239 "no-balls" in his Test career while delivering 12849 legitimate balls! - Mohandas Menon (@mohanstatsman) Ishant Sharma rediscovering that form which made him such a phenomenon in recent years: Bowls 3 no-balls in an over.- The UnReal Times (@TheUnRealTimes) Maiden Test fifty for Kusal Perera on his Test debut. Crucial knock. Stuart Binny's 2nd wicket. 3rd Test wicket. He's gonna make a cool selector one day.- Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) Ishant's last over before lunch was magnificent. Full of fire. Binny has done what is asked. Fine use of the new ball by India.- Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) This is a very good fightback by Sri Lanka. Kusal Perera and Rangana Herath are holding firm. Sri Lanka 118 for 6 now. KL Rahul drops another catch. Kusal Perera this time. Sri Lanka's 1st innings summed up... - Sportskeeda (@Sportskeeda) 2 criticisms of Ishant have been sloppy wrists & length too short.He seems to have addressed both.Well done Ishant & those who helped him.- Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) Dhammika Prasad walks back retired hurt after getting hit on his fingers. Rangana Herath walks out to bat. Stuart Binny haters right now... - Sportskeeda (@Sportskeeda) In the morning session on the third day at SSC, Colombo only 67 runs scored and 7 wickets lost in 22.4 overs - Mohandas Menon (@mohanstatsman) That was the 50th Test wicket for the Binny family (Roger 47, Stuart 3) - Mohandas Menon (@mohanstatsman) And on the stroke of lunch, Stuart Binny strikes again to leave Sri Lanka reeling at 47 for 5. And that by the way is Naman Ojha's first catch in Test Cricket. - Sportskeeda (@Sportskeeda) Ishant comes back and gets the skipper! India are on a roll here! Sri Lanka 45 for 4 now. - Sportskeeda (@Sportskeeda) Stuart Binny gets the crucial wicket of Dinesh Chandimal. But there was an inside edge. Unlucky, but India deserve that luck after what happened at Galle. Sri Lanka 40 for 3 as Mathews joins in. Dinesh Chandimal is looking to counter attack once again as he quickly moves on to 15 from 19 deliveries. Lanka 30 for 2. Well and now Umesh strikes for India. Lanka in trouble as both openers are sent packing! Chandimal walks out to bat now. There it is! Ishant provides the breakthrough! Tharanga fails to capitalize on that dropped chance! - Sportskeeda (@Sportskeeda) India are all out for 312 in their first innings. Pujara remains unbeaten on 145. OUT! Yadav 4 b Herath; Pujara (145*) becomes 4th batsman after Gavaskar, Sehwag and Dravid to carry their bats through an innings. - Sportskeeda (@Sportskeeda) Everyone has to read this, and your respect for Pujara will go up 100%. - Gautam :) (@imGkhosla) Pujara: Sir I remained not out throughout the innings, scored 145, 4th Indian opener ever ! Shastri: Play Ranji. Learn to bat with the tail- The-Lying-Lama (@KyaUkhaadLega) Pujara is at mid-wicket still wearing his helmet. You'll have to get him out for him to take it off - Bharat Sundaresan (@beastieboy07) Now that is a comeback! carries his bat.- Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) Dropped! KL Rahul gives Tharanga a reprieve in the very first over. Rain has played a crucial role in this Test and thus we have had only 95 overs of play possible over the course of two days. Hopefully, we can have a full day's play today. Indian fans would be hoping for some quick runs from the bat of centurion Cheteshwar Pujara.
