The visitor shows good bowling performance against the host India in the first test match at Eden Garden, Kolkata. India all out in their first innings after good bowling performance by Sri Lankan Pace attack as Suranga Lakmal in the first-day pick three-wicket and bowled six maidens over, in the second day Lakmal lethal bowling continue but remain wicketless in the second day but manage to grab Bhuvneshwar Kumar wicket. For India side the top scorer of 52 Pujara fight against Sri Lankan bowler. In India only two batsmen who got out for a duck which include India shining star batsmen run-machine Virat Kohli. Dilruwan Perera who pick up two brutal wickets of wicketkeeper-batsmen Wriddhiman Saha and all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja.

Earlier, Dinesh Chandimal was only the second captain since 1969 to field first after winning the toss at Eden Gardens and he was certainly not regretting that decision. In a heavily curtailed Day 1, the visitors dented India’s batting pride on a wicket that afforded both pace and movement. Sri Lanka paceman Suranga Lakmal took three wickets without conceding a run to put India in the mire in the 11.5 overs possible on day one before Shanaka compounded India’s misery on Day 2. India manages to score 172 runs in their first innings as Shami show good fight.
