IND v SL: Jadeja, Ashwin Frustrate Sri Lanka With The Bat In 1st Session, Score 468/7
R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja
India vs Sri Lanka: Ravindra Jadeja's century frustrated Sri Lanka in the first session of day 2 of the 1st test match at Mohali as India continue dominance with the score reading 468/7.
The day began with a minute of silence as both teams paid their respects to Shane Warne and Rodney Marsh - the two Australians who died yesterday.
Jadeja and R Ashwin continued from where they left last evening - defending, rotating strike, and not letting Sri Lankan bowlers settle. To add salt to the wounds, the visitors were without the services of Lahiru Kumara, who was ruled out of the Test series due to a hamstring injury.
Ashwin and Jadeja kept playing the bowlers with ease and nothing really happened to excite the Sri Lankans for the most part of the session.
