But Lanka have had their moments early in the match, sending back both Shikhar Dhawan and Cheteshwar Pujara before Lunch. Both the wickets deserved praise. Dhawan was caught by Suranga Lakmal with a brilliant outfield attempt, then Pujara was a victim of a perfectly executed plan.


But Lakmal's catch at deep backward square leg will be remembered as ‘one shoe’ catch.


Dhawan played a careless sweep shot, which ended up getting a top-edge. Lakmal, fielding at deep, lost his shoe while chasing the ball. He, however, completed the bizarre catch.


It's so funny, that even Dhawan left the field with a smile.
