During the first day of the first Test of the ongoing Sri Lanka’s tour of India in Mohali, India have started on a positive note after captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and chose to bat.
Leading India for the first time in this format, Sharma was the first of their batter to be dismissed after he pulled a Lahiru Kumara delivery straight to Suranga Lakmal at fine leg. A swift 52-run opening partnership between Mayank Agarwal (33) and Sharma ended with the latter walking back to the pavilion after scoring 29 (28) including six fours.
Playing for the first time at No. 3 in only his second home Test, Hanuma Vihari batted with composure especially after his team lost two wickets in the morning session. Nearing a fifth Test half-century, Vihari has already put together a 50-run partnership for the third wicket alongside former captain Virat Kohli.
