Zaheer Khan vindicated skipper Dhoni's decision to bowl first, scalping three in his opening spell. He claimed Sangakkara, Jayawardene and Kapugedara to break the Sri Lankans' backbone, and ended with figures of 4-21. Praveen Kumar also chipped in, claiming three wickets. Sri Lanka didn't offer much, only Kulasekera and Thusara offersd some resistance.
