India imposes a follow-on on Sri Lanka

The Indian team has decided to impose a follow-on in Colombo. Sri Lanka needed 304 runs to avoid the follow-on, but couldn't. On the morning of the fourth day, Samarshan Jain took both Sri Lankan wickets. First, he took the wicket of Lahiru Kumar, taking the first wicket of his Test career. After that, he dismissed the centurion Sonal to wrap up Sri Lanka's innings. Only Sonal Dinush from Sri Lanka tried to fight unilaterally.

Performance of Indian team

The Indian team's goal was to eliminate Sri Lanka before the follow-on was imposed. The weather in Colombo is bad and it is raining continuously. Hence, Team India was eager to impose a follow-on on Sri Lanka. Manav Suthar and Prashant Krishna took three wickets each, while Samantha Jain took two wickets. Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammad Siraj took one wicket each.
