The momentum slightly shifted towards the Sri Lankan side in the second session of the first Test against India in Mohali after they managed to remove a steady looking batting pair of Virat Kohli and Hanuma Vihari.
The hosts had lost both the openers in the first session but crossed the 100-run mark, courtesy Kohli and Vihari who made sure that there were no further fall of wickets.
Returning back to action after lunch, the two batters began from where they had left and eventually stitched a stand of 90 runs for the third wicket before Kohli was cleaned up by Embuldeniya for 45.
The spinner breached Kohli’s defence who tried to negotiate a length delivery on the back foot but completely missed it.
Later, Vihari was sent back in the hut after he played one on to his stumps from Vishwa Fernando. The right-hander was out for 58. The home side was 199/4 at the end of the second session.
