100 up for Sri Lanka now!

Sri Lanka have started well in this session so far. They have added 20 runs already without losing a wicket. Chandimal and Mathews on the crease.

Harbhajan Singh comes to bowl for the first time.

DROPPED! Another missed chance. Saha drops a sitter! Straight forward chance goes begging.

Post Lunch session begins. Indians will look to take the remaining 5 wickets quickly.

Galle pitch reminds me of Wankhede, India v Aus 2004 when ball turned square in first session itself. That Test lasted barely 2 days. This?
