SPORT LD SL 4 LAST

The first hour in the post-lunch period produced 62 runs
in 17 overs and things were looking good once again for the
visitors when the home team struck twice in quick succession
to wrest back the initiative.

Sreesanth, who was very expensive in his first spell of
five overs, was brought back into the attack from the
Churchgate end and broke the stand by baiting Mahela
with a short ball that the classy batsman hooked down the
throat of long leg fielder Virender Sehwag.
The senior Jayawardene had looked quite good during his
short stay of 67 minutes at the crease while making 29 with
four fours.
Lanka were dealt another big blow when Samaraweera was
caught bat-pad at short leg by Murali Vijay, a dolly catch,
off a sharply turning ball from Harbhajan Singh.
These two wickets put the visitors firmly on the back
foot before Dilshan and Mathews prevented further damage
before tea. PTI SSR
