Losing the toss on the pitches of Sri Lanka is not the best option that any of the captains would prefer. The statistics reveal in the last 14 years, only ‘TWO’ captains have lost the toss and managed to win the game.

Ishant Sharma one and Varun Aaron one wicket, which states that Spinners lead the team from the front.

Sri Lanka was forced to wind up at the score of 183 and now the Indian Batsmen were to be tested. But it looked for some time that the Lankan bowlers will have control on the innings when India lost two early wickets.

Angelo Mathews, the Lone Warrior scored 64 and clearly conveyed that it was not difficult to bat on a pitch like this, if played with right tactics. With the help of half-century scored by Dinesh Chandimal, Sri Lanka managed to get a score of 183.

Ashwin’s six wickets in an innings turned out to be the best figures for an Indian Bowler in the first innings, in an away Test.

It looked like Ashwin targeted only Left Handed batsmen, as he took four out of them. Ashwin, who was not performing well in last two years on away series will be happy looking at his figures in the First Innings.
