2nd Test: India complete Sri Lanka series-whitewash with massive 238-run win
Two wins against Sri Lanka fetched India 24 points but Rohit Sharma's men remained in fifth position in the World Championship table due to 'low percentage points' (54.16). They have 77 points in their kitty. Scorecard | As it happenedA herculean task at hand, Sri Lanka took the field on the third day with a lot of determination but it was always going to be tough to negotiate the Indian attack on a track that has been offering turn and uneven bounce from day one. Resuming at 28 for one in pursuit of an improbable 447-run target, the Sri Lankan batters, led by skipper Dimuth Karunaratne (107), resisted the Indian attack for some time before folding for 208 in the post-tea session. Left-handed Karunaratne, one of the most consistent performers for Sri Lanka in recent times, raised his 14th Test century with a boundary off Jasprit Bumrah. He took some time to settle but worked the ball around swiftly, consistently placing them in the gaps.
