It also brought together two left-handers Paranavitana
and Sangakkara to the crease who remained unconquered at the
lunch break.

The second wicket duo eschewed risks so the scoring rate
fell to under three an over and the first hour's play realised
only 37 runs in 14 overs.
Sangakkara and Paranavitana raised the 50 of the innings
in the 19th over and after 81 minutes of play since Friday
evening.
Sreesanth got the first break for the home team after
lunch by sending back opener Paranavitana in his first over of
a fresh spell as Lanka slumped from 119 for one to 137 for
four.
Zaheer, brought back for a new spell from the Churchgate
end, sent back Mahela Jayawardene (12) and Thilan Samaraweera
(0) in the space of 15 balls for one run.
And just as the visitors were hoping to go into tea
without further loss, Ojha turned a ball across the face of
all rounder Angelo Mathews' bat and India skipper Mahendra
Singh Dhoni accepted the edge.
Sreesanth and Zaheer delivered the blows in the very
first overs of their new spells in the post-lunch period to
send back Paranavitana and former Lanka skipper Mahela
Jayawardene respectively. More PTI SSR
