India vs Sri Lanka, 1st Test - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Rohit Sharma 29(28)

9.5
W
Kumara to Rohit, out Caught by Lakmal!! Just Rohit things -- pulling compulsively, and straight down the throat of fine leg. Kumara has bought him here, setting him up with a bunch of sitters, tempting him to go after. This one's short as well, angling in around the ribs. Rohit gets slightly cramped as he swivels, swats, but just doesn't get on top of the length, getting the top-edge. Rohit c Lakmal b Kumara 29(28) [4s-6]

Kumara to Rohit, no run, 143.1kph, full, on off, pushed off the front foot to mid-off
9.3

Kumara to Rohit, FOUR, 149.2kph, quicker, and juicier. It's still on a back of a length, but it's skidding on. Doesn't matter, Rohit commits to his pull, rolls his wrists on it, and keeps it all along the ground now. Mid-wicket

7.3
4
Kumara to Rohit, FOUR, 142kph, another overpitch, this time way outside off. Rohit makes sure he doesn't overhit, rather beautifully stretching forward and steering it through point

7.1
4
Kumara to Rohit, FOUR, welcome, welcome. 141.8kph, and a nice friendly low full toss on Rohit's legs. He isn't letting go, flicking it stylishly, into a widely open mid-wicket
6.2
Lakmal to Rohit, 1 run, 124.4kph, length, just outside off. Sharma hangs back and lets it come on, to knock it wristily in front of mid-on to pinch a quick one

2.4

Lakmal to Rohit, FOUR, 129.9kph, strays a little too straight. Lakmal, looking for that away-seam, gets greedy with this line angling in on leg-stump. Rohit waits, lines it up, and with just a wristy tuck, gets it through square leg
2.3
Lakmal to Rohit, no run, 123.5kph, on middle, good length, clipped softly, and watchfully. Mid-wicket
