Did India enforce the follow-on ??

India have a lead of 400 but they have enforced the follow-on.

India has indeed enforced the follow-on with a 400 run lead.

Sanjay: "Lanka fall short of Jadeja's score by 1 run!!"

Neeraj: "Wow! Jadeja first man in 49 years to score 150 and take a 5-for!"

India have a lead of 400 and they have enforced the follow-on. Sri Lanka started well today, reached 161 for 4 and almost saw off the first hour. But right at the stroke of drinks, Bumrah bamboozled Asalanka with a slower one. That triggered a collapse in which Sri Lanka lost six wickets in 13 runs. After his unbeaten 175, Jadeja ruled the roost with the ball as well and finished with 5 for 41 - his tenth five-for in Test cricket.

How often we have seen this happening to the visiting teams in India. India puts a big 1st innings score on the board and then the visiting team just crumbles under the pressure against a quality Indian bowling attack. The spinners were always going to be the threat for Lanka but credit should be given to Shami and Bumrah too as they bowled their heart out and got important breakthroughs. Ashwin and jadeja did what they have been doing for many years now and completely bamboozled the Sri Lankan batting lineup. Jadeja finished with a 5 wicket haul in addition to his superb 175 with the bat and India are right on the top in this game now. India have given a follow on and Sri Lanka will come out to bat again.

Ashwin to start with the new ball for India and Thirimanne takes the first strike for Sri Lanka in the 2nd innings.

Ashwin starts with a maiden and Shami to bowl from the other end with the new ball to the Sri Lankan skipper Dimuth Karunaratne on strike.
