Big nail in the coffin.Ashwin gets Sanga cheaply again. Not quite what Sri Lankans wanted to see but it's been a truly great career. Respect

Sanga caught Vijay bowled Ashwin. Two Tamils join forces to get the greatest Lankan batsman of all time. #SLvInd

Sangakkara's.. First dismissal - 23 lbw Boje, Galle, July 20, 2000. Last dismissal - 18 c Vijay b Ashwin, August 23, 2015. #ThankYouSanga

All Indian fielders ran towards Sangakkara to bid adieu.

WICKET! No fairy-tale ending for Kumar Sangakkara.

In comes Sangakkara. Last innings of his glittering career.

Roar of welcome greets Sanga for his final knock from big crowd that's come today. But also a period of great pressure for him & his team
— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) August 23, 2015

WICKET! India have struck early here. Soft dismissal. K Silva goes for 1.

India have declared. Sri Lanka need 413 runs to win.

Sri Lanka chasing 400+ targets in Sri Lanka 471 v Ind, 1993 L 482 v Pak, 1994 L 464 v NZ, 1998 L 491 v Pak, 2009 D 413 v Ind, 2015 ?
— Bharath Seervi (@SeerviBharath) August 23, 2015

Saha is limping through singles, but India not declaring. Is that a risk worth even considering? Crazy! #SLvIND
— Jaspreet Sahni (@jaspreet_sahni) August 23, 2015

Last time India set a target in excess of 400 was against South Africa at Johannesburg in Dec 2013 (Target: 457) and almost lost the test!
— Bharath Seervi (@SeerviBharath) August 23, 2015

WICKET! Amit Mishra departs trying to score quick runs. 318/8. Lead by 405 runs.

The lead is more than 400 now. What will be the right time to declare?

WICKET! Prasad gets his 2nd as Ashwin departs for 19. India 311/7, leading by 398 runs with 3 wickets remaining.

No Test side has made 400+ in 4th inns in SL Highest in fc cricket is 513/9 by Ctrl Province (Sanga 101) v S Province at Kandy 2004 #IndvSL

Ajinkya Rahane, the workhorse of the Indian cricket team, scores another priceless century. The determination in his eyes is inspiring.
— Sachin Kalbag (@SachinKalbag) August 23, 2015

Need me to bat at 5? Righto, I shall! Number 3 is a worry? Want me to bat there? Chill bro, I shall. And score a 100. Rahane, you beauty!
— Srini Mama (@SriniMama16) August 23, 2015

Bats where the team wants him to. A complete team man. Best slip fielder in the team. Underrated. Rahul Dravid = Ajinkya Rahane. #SameGuy
— Srini Mama (@SriniMama16) August 23, 2015

Ajinkya Rahane: Scored 96 on Kallis Last Test Scored 147 on Dhoni Last Test Scored Century on Sanga Last Test #SLvsInd
— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) August 23, 2015

Ajinkya Rahane could fill up the space in Indian team which Rahul dravid left #No.3..... Nobody can replace Dravid anyways #INDvSL

Ajinkya Rahane in Tests : Hundred in Australia ✔ Hundred in England ✔ Hundred in New Zealand ✔ Hundred in Sri Lanka ✔ Brilliant stuff

ARahane is my man fr all seasons/occasions..am so glad he 'ton'ed it w/aplomb!Very uncomplicated Rahane is best team man any capt cn ask fr!
— Bishan Bedi (@BishanBedi) August 23, 2015

So what if Rohit Sharma got out on 34. While he was at the crease, Rahane scored a century. Now, that's talent!
— Keh Ke Peheno (@coolfunnytshirt) August 23, 2015

WICKET! First ball after tea, India loses another wicket as Stuart Binny edges Dhammika Prasad to second slip.

now that rahane has had success at number five and number three, he should quickly be moved to number four #SLvIND
— Gaurav Kalra (@gauravkalra75) August 23, 2015

Test hundreds in Aus, Eng, NZ and SL. A 96 in SA. Safe to say Rahane is the real deal. #SLvIND
— Dileep Premachandran (@SpiceBoxofEarth) August 23, 2015

Rahane is the only Indian who has scored at least one 90+ score in all the 6 recent tours (SA, NZ, Eng, Aus, Ban, SL) #INDvsSL
— Bharath Seervi (@SeerviBharath) August 23, 2015

TEA! India at 283/5, leading by 370 runs.

Rahane didn't even wait for the umpire's decision. Kaushal gets his fourth.

WICKET! Centurion Ajinkya Rahane departs after brilliant 126 runs innings.

Stuart Binny is the new batsman.

WICKET! RG Sharma (34) is out, c Jehan Mubarak b Tharindu Kaushal, 256/4

Rahane in recent tours 96 in SA 118 in NZ 103 in Eng 147 in Aus 98 in Ban 100* in SL Only current Indian with such scores in every nation!
— Bharath Seervi (@SeerviBharath) August 23, 2015

India should be in hot pursuit of runs now. Time crucial. Important to have not just enough runs but also enough overs to push for win
— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) August 23, 2015

India will look to score briskly now. Lead by 300+ runs now. Remember, no team has chased 400+ at PSS, Colombo.

All 4 tons by Ajinkya Rahane have come overseas.

Ajinkya Rahane is at least a pillar if not the Wall.
— Nemish Shah (@Snoozymandias) August 23, 2015

Dhawan injured will you open in ODI? Rahane: Yes will you stand at Slip? Rahane: Yes Rohit Struggling at No.3 will you? Rahane: Yes
