India 23/0 after 7 overs

More trouble for Sri Lanka in this Pink-ball Test - Praveen Jayawickrama has walked of the field with an injury. Looks like he has hurt his knee really badly while fielding at point. He has been assisted off the field by the physio. So, looks like Sri Lanka have lost a bowler for now, in this second innings.

I personally felt that fifty was like a century. That's why I celebrated like that. It was like a century feeling for me. You saw the players who defended the ball, there was a lot of chance of nicking, and there was variable bounce on that wicket. You can't just play very negatively on that wicket and just keep defending the ball. You've got to have that positive intent when you step out on the field. The wicket is not that great. It's obviously bowler-friendly

You can't play negative on this wicket and just keep defending the ball. You need to have that positive intent when you step out on the field. And you know that the wicket is not that great and obviously bowler-friendly, so my mindset was to play each ball on its merit and see to it that I get runs on every ball
