India lost the wicket of Shikhar Dhawan during the 1st session of the 1st day of the 3rd test match at the Feroz Shah Kotla stadium in New Delhi. India won the toss and elected to bat first, and both the openers gave a steady start to India but it was a poor sweep shot played by Dhawan on the bowling of Parera that got the Lankans the wicket they were looking for. The winter setting for this Test match is just ideal for long batting stints at the middle and ahead of the long tour of South Africa, India’s top batsmen will test their skill and temperament against a Sri Lanka attack that has shown fire at times.
