Ravindra Jadeja let his bat do the talking on Saturday as he cruised to an unbeaten 175 to guide India to a mammoth total of 574. Relive Day 2 in pictures in our photogallery here.
‘Rockstar’ Ravindra Jadeja makes an indelible mark as a batsman
Jadeja’s 175 not out was a calming partnership with Rishabh Pant, an enduring one with R Ashwin and then an entertaining one with Mohammed Shami – all in the span of three sessions as India showed off their might against the hapless Sri Lankans, writes Chetan Narula.
Sri Lanka find themselves in some sort of trouble, with their score reading 108/4 in reply to India’s first innings total of 574 in the first Test. Pathum Nissanka and Charith Asalanka will have their task cut out. Stay tuned for more updates as we build-up towards Day 3.
