Sri Lanka retaliate with Dilshan hundred

India v Sri Lanka Nov2009 Ahmedabad, 1st Test Day Two

SCORE

India (Ist innings) 426/10
Srilanka (Ist innings) 275/3 in 70 overs
Mahela Jayawardene 36*
Samaraweera 45*
Final Score Card

A superb day for Sri Lanka then as they dominated all three sessions. They bowled out India in the first hour of the day before a superb knock from Dilshan. Dilshan was his usual aggressive self, scoring his runs at a brisk pace to register the highest score by a Sri Lankan in India. India fought their way back as Zaheer got rid of Dilshan and Sanga in quick succession but Mahela and Samaraweera ensured that there were no further hiccups with an 81-run partnership. India's bowlers have looked uninspiring, especially Mishra who didn't bowl a single maiden over in 18 overs while their fielding was sloppy. Can they do better tomorrow or will SL gain a lead? Join us tomorrow for that.
