India secured a commanding 178-run lead over Sri Lanka on the third day of the opening Test in Galle, despite a resilient maiden century from Dinusha.
Ravindra Jadeja and Suthar combined to take seven wickets, effectively dismantling the Sri Lankan batting lineup and putting India in a strong position to win.
India was eventually bowled out for 462, with the bowlers now tasked with restricting Sri Lanka in the second innings to force a result before the final day.
