OVER 90 | SCORE 399/3 | Pujara 144, Rahane 39

Team India have registered theri highest ever Day 1 total in an away Test, as Rahane and Pujara complete 100-run partnership. The target of reaching 400 runs on first day, almost became a reality but neither sides would have thought that there would be such fireworks from the tourists, who badly struggled at the same venue in 2015.

Secon new ball taken! Comfortable Day1 outing for India at Galle edging towards a close. The hosts look out of ideas and will be hoping to spring early surprise tomorrow morning hoping to wrap up India before the situation gets out of hand.
