India's day. SL on this wicket should be looking for the regular pattern. Win toss, bat first. Score a good first innings total and leave the rest to two spinners for day 4 and 5 to take to a win. 210 is far too low a first innings total in this match. SL will be totally disappointed they wasted the toss advantage.

Pujara and Vijay slowly moving Ind into a decent position - plenty of time in the test I suppose so no rush

Selectors gonna have a fun time.
Vijay dropped and then comes back in and gets a good score.
good luck picking 2 openers from Dhawan, Vijay and Rahul.

Vijay gets his century....
Scores equal, but India have nine wickets in hand. A thrashing loom....

100 for Murali . 50 for Chet and overall lead of 5 runs with 9 wickets intact.
At 211/1 now. This could be the innings where our opponents may yet again have to bowl 150 to 180 overs.

Lead being 107 runs and 3 days remaining, India should be winning this.
In my opinion we will definitely bat out another 60 overs (2 sessions) at least and take the overall lead to 380 runs. From there on if wickets are still intact I think scoring will be at ODI pace. Wickets permitting we have enough time left to bat whole day tomorrow and another hour on day 4. SL will have to bowl and bat really well to make us even bat again.

153 runs lead now.I think we will have wickets in hand by end of second session as well. We are very likely to bat till best part of 3rd session.
