Sri Lanka reached 329/6 in their second innings by lunch on day five of the second Test in Colombo, establishing a lead of 117 runs over the Indian cricket team.
Sonal Dinusha remained unbeaten on 55 and Keshara Nuwantha was not out on 46, with the pair sharing a crucial 111-run partnership for the seventh wicket during the morning session.
India faces a challenging second session to break the partnership after Nuwantha survived an LBW review off Ravindra Jadeja just before the lunch break on Thursday.
