First day of camp looked like flat, tasteless and bowling Sri Lanka's batsmen are queuing up to go to India. That all changed today. storms yesterday and the night's rain had left the field damp and seaming and the song in India today. After a long time bowler Ishant Sharma seemed intimidating. It was the kind of morning. unexpected things happened. Pallo said. Indians smiled. Ishant and roared. However, it was all dark in Sri Lanka. Angelo Mathews glowed with a wonderful cameo and Sri Lanka made 350, which can be daunting for a total of these circumstances.

The story of the morning was, however, Ishanti and to a lesser extent Abhimanyu Mithun. Indian seamen have harassed the batsmen in two periods - first with the old ball and the other with the new cherry. Sometimes, spinners were ineffective in a seven-over between them and the Sri Lankans added 23 in the period. It was the only period when they could breathe easily.

Then, Angelo Mathews presented his sense of cricket. He had been pushing and prodding before. Survival was at the forefront of his mind. With the departure of Jayawardene, jumped to Plan B and began the attack by the contras. Cricket is the classic old school. As the cliché that the attack is the best form of defense. Sometimes it is really so. He walked on the track and stopped midwicket boundary Mithun. Then the limit point Ishanti carved, erected in the middle-off and reduced by covers.
