Wriddhiman Saha is such a talented wicket-keeper. It's unfortunate that he is playing in the same era as Dhoni.
— SAGAR (@sagarcasm) August 5, 2017

Much needed breakthrough. Top catch by Saha. But outstanding innings by Kusal Mendis. Worthy of much applause.
— Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) August 5, 2017

Ben Stokes gets the breakthrough. That's why he is in this team. #SLvsIND
— Arjun Ashok (@arj_90) August 5, 2017

When a team fights back after follow on the first thing everyone will talk about is 2001 Kolkata Test...
— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) August 5, 2017

Mendis century was amazing given the circumstances it was played in.
— Clive (@vanillawallah) August 5, 2017

What. A. Desperate. Review! #SLvInd
— Chetan Narula (@chetannarula) August 5, 2017

Sir Ravindra Jadeja can bowl both off-spin and leg-spin on the same ball. That's why the ball goes straight & he gets wicket! #Respect #CT13

India havent struggled so long for a wicket in series yet. Lankan batsmen finally showing gumption, making contest somewhat competitive
— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) August 5, 2017

Saha predicts Indian spinners better than most of Sri Lanka batsman....
— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) August 5, 2017

A Jadeja appeal n what follows, a movie by itself -the wait, the begging, the convincing, gimme the referral, ok first, fuck off now #SLvIND
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) August 5, 2017

Ashwin, Jadeja, Umesh, Shami ... every bowler contributing so well !!! Hope this attack continues to excel in overseas conditions #SLvIND
— Navneet Mundhra (@navneet_mundhra) August 5, 2017

Reckon Kohli figured there were no quick runs to be made on this pitch, asking Lanka to follow on#SLvsIND
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) August 5, 2017

India enforce the follow on.

Let's hope VVS Mathews and Rahul Dickwella don't make them pay for that decision #SLvIND
— Sir Dennis Jadeja (@DennisCricket_) August 5, 2017

Respect for Pradeep, walked in just for Ashwin's 5-wicket haul. #INDvSL
— Silly Point (@FarziCricketer) August 5, 2017

Everyone is staring at Ashwin for taking 9th wicket which has delayed their lunch by 30 mins. Take the 10th early now. #INDvSL
— Silly Point (@FarziCricketer) August 5, 2017

India may as well try and get this over with in three days. The TV overlords won't like that though. #SLvInd
— Rick Eyre on cricket (@rickeyrecricket) August 5, 2017

oh pradeep is coming in to bat. ashwin can get his five-for #SLvIND
— Gaurav Kalra (@gauravkalra75) August 5, 2017

Looks like India will take all 10 Sri Lankan wickets for the first time this series #SLvInd
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) August 5, 2017

Good sportsmanship from Sri Lanka to give Ashwin an opportunity to get another five-for. #INDvSL
— Silly Point (@FarziCricketer) August 5, 2017

Nuwan Pradeep is ruled out for atleast 2 weeks & here he has come to bat. Pointlessness of this series gets extended every minute. #SLvInd
— Chetan Narula (@chetannarula) August 5, 2017

Bhagwan Ram did not knew tat BCCI will have so much bilateral ties with Lanka in future. Or else he would have complete destroyed lanka

The only change Ravi Shastri has made to this Indian team is to make Ravindra Jadeja look like him. #SLvInd
— Shubh AggarWall (@shubh_chintak) August 5, 2017

India often sent in their A teams to Zimbabwe for all those ODI tours.

This upcoming home series against Sri Lanka...#SLvIND
— Suneer (@suneerchowdhary) August 5, 2017

Roshan : "Dhananjaya de Silva got a 100 here.."
*BOWLED!*

SL batsmen not even letting their commentators be optimistic for a second.
— Srinath (@_peews) August 5, 2017

Chandimal is the Sri Lankan Rohit Sharma. Except they've made him captain.
— Aju John (@islandexpress) August 5, 2017

Enter Che the catcher. Go a long way to shut cranky comments about his fielding. #SLvIND
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) August 5, 2017

Cheteshwar Pujara not only scoring Centuries he is taking brilliant catches in slips too...
— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) August 5, 2017

3 sixes off Ashwin-Jadeja in 7 balls... okay, Lanka finally have a plan. But for how long. #SLvInd
— Chetan Narula (@chetannarula) August 5, 2017

India's current test side is the best team across all teams, all formats imo. #SLvIND
— Manya 🏏 (@CSKian716) August 5, 2017

Numbers against Sri Lanka in SL would fall in the same bracket...but given the decline of SL, they shouldn't. Same like West Indies.

(Plz tell me I heard that wrong)#SLvInd
— Suneer (@suneerchowdhary) August 5, 2017

Other than records, the opponent won't get much out of playing the present SL team.
— Bharath Ramaraj (@Fancricket12) August 5, 2017

Dickwaala? No Sunny, it's not what you just said.

Although it makes sense to call him or any guy that too.#SLvIND
— Suneer (@suneerchowdhary) August 5, 2017

Dickwella's in. Expect him to join Jadeja in some pointless appeals. Might even refer himself.#SLvIND
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) August 5, 2017

Well bowled Umesh, but think it's time to get Ashwin from his end now.#SLvIND
— Suneer (@suneerchowdhary) August 5, 2017

Poor Sri Lanka, only leading with the edge.#SLvIND
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) August 5, 2017

What a strange, strange end to a strange, strange Mendis innings.#SLvInd #SLvsInd
— Suneer (@suneerchowdhary) August 5, 2017

The mandatory Virat Kohli drop at slips!!!#SLvIND
— Deepu Narayana (@deeputalks) August 5, 2017

The sheer inability to be patient at the crease has reduced the number of draws in tests
— Sanjay Subrahmanyan (@sanjaysub) August 5, 2017

Mendis look so uncomfortable all morning. Chandimal gets one off middle of the bat and hits it straight to the fielder.#SLvInd #SLvsInd
