Day 3 Conclusion
Sri Lanka were 47/5 in their first innings at lunch on the third day of the third and final cricket Test against India. India all out for 312. It was a good day 2 for India as Pujara and Mishra switched 104 runs partnership. Pujara windmills his bat, gets the blood pumping through his legs with a little jog, checks if those straight drives are in order. He looks up and sees blue skies and bright sunshine. Looks to his left, and sees Ishant Sharma towering like a palm tree.

The pitch is good for fast bowlers and will test the Lankan batsman.
Sri Lanka's slide, after facing a mere 18 overs, happened after Pujara (145 not out) guided his side to 312 all out (100.1 overs) in the first innings. Pujara became the 45th batsman in Test cricket to carry his bat through an innings. The hosts were in trouble very quickly as they tried to negotiate nearly an hour's play before lunch.
