1.45pm Rohit Sharma has declared mid-over. Jadeja finishes unbeaten on 175. India end up with 574 for 8. Sri Lanka have 15 minutes to bat before tea. Oh hang on, they have taken tea. That is strange. So we will have a long final session. It saves India 10 minutes of that innings changeover. Hemant will be with you soon for the start of the next session.

de Silva to Jadeja, 1 run, fired into the pads, helped along to fine leg for one

Bumrah is going back into the change room. I suspect he is removing his pads etc now. I think Jadeja will make a big push for the double now. Dhananjaya to bowl

Embuldeniya to Mohammed Shami, 2 leg byes, fired into the leg side, looks to work it around the corner, but has to do with two leg-byes

This is the highest score by an India No. 7

Embuldeniya to Jadeja, 2 runs, on the toes, can't get under it, but works it for a couple into the leg side
127.3
6
Embuldeniya to Jadeja, SIX, lovely strike. Down the wicket, but not right to its pitch, which gives him the room to swing his arms through it. Clears deep midwicket. Will Jadeja's double-century enter the retirement equation now?
