With the draw out of contention, Sri Lanka need some type of miracle on Day 3 to chase down the mammoth 447-run target on a turning Bengaluru track.

At Stumps on Day 2, Sri Lanka were 28-1, needing 419 more runs to win with Kusal Perera and Dimuth Karunaratne at the crease.

Earlier, India wrapped up Sri Lanka's first innings for just 109 runs after the visitors resumed their innings at 86-6 on Day 2. Jasprit Bumrah was the pick of the bowlers for India as he took his first five-wicket haul on home soil and 8th overall.

After taking a huge 143-run first-innings lead, Rohit Sharma, Mayank Agarwal, and Hanuma Vihari got starts but failed to capitalise on that. While Virat Kohli was trapped in front of the wicket at 13.

It was Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer again who scored at a brisk pace and put more agony on Sri Lanka. Pant went on to break Kapil Dev's long-standing record of fastest fifty as he reached the 50-run mark in just 28 deliveries.

Meanwhile, Shreyas went on to score 67 and showed how to bat on rank-turners with a balanced approach. With a half-century in each innings, Shreyas became the first Indian player to score a fifty in both the innings of a pink-ball Test. For Sri Lanka, Praveen Jayawickrama picked 4 wickets while Lasith Embuldeniya scalped 3 as India declared their second innings at 303-9.
