India won the toss, Parthiv Patel in as expected for Kaarthick, stupid decision. I dont think 2 dropped catches would cost that much.
India 198-9 in 60 overs 1st day at P Saravana muthu stadium. Mendis magic. Carrom. Dhammika Prasad did his debut proud. Then came the 51 runs partnership between Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma in 20+ overs. Last wickket pair. India 249 all out. 1st inngs. 80 overs. Mendis 5 for 56.
Then Srilanka walked in to bat the 8 overs left for the day. Sharma bowled Warnapura. Superfast in that conditions. SL 14/1.

India wins second test against Srilanka in Galle
India salvages pride. Kumble's face showed a sign of relief. Well done. August 3rd, 2008.
Memorable day. being a Sunday, was able to watch the face nuances of Kumble.
A win of 170 runs shows the calibre of the team effort.
Viru was the man of the match for his splendid 201* and 50. Imagine if he had thrown away his wicket so early, as selectors want him to do?
Also Bhajji, was fine. 10 wickets in a test match is always a memory to cherish. Also I am trying to gather the 20+ wins India has had, during his tenure, with 10+ wickets in the test match. (cricmania.com)
