i am baffled to how Lankans can't read googlies.

Hoping sanga steers them clear in his last match here,well needn't be at his exceptional best

This Test has been all India. Based on how they have played Ashwin so far, Sri Lanka will do very well to even make India bat again.

U are adding it as element of sarcasm,right ? lest it ain't make perfect sense

Bhajji,Mishra and Ash as a three pronged spin attack have done well so far,with the pitch likely to break out wickets might as well tumble from here on.
SL will have to do really well to even make India bat again.

Sri Lanka will likely lose this match with at least a day left to spare. The Indians have bowled well while the Sri Lankan batsmen batted with no purpose. This might very well be the end of an era for Sri Lanka when the greats retire this year.

Prasad out first ball of the morning! Angelo Mathews joins Sangakkara at the crease with Sri Lanka in all kinds of trouble at 33/3. Sangakkara has 7 centuries at Galle, and scored 50+ in six of his last seven matches here. Sri Lanka will need some kind of magic from him if they are to even extend this match into a fourth day.

No magic from Sangakkara today. He and Mathews go in back-to-back overs and Sri Lanka are on the verge of losing inside three days. Fantastic slip catch by Rahane to dismiss Sanga for 40. Sri Lanka still need another 84 runs to make India bat again and have just 5 wickets remaining.

Full marks to Dinesh Chandimal for making a match out of what seemed to be a cake walk for the Indians after the dismissal of Sanga and Angelo.

Great knock by Chandimal to give the Sri Lankan bowlers a total to bowl at. India is still in the driver's seat with two days to go and less than 180 runs to get.
