Avinash: "Same ending for both the innings. One bowler picking up 5 wickets, the other one picking 4 and the last wicket to be run out." Yes, and that along with the big 6th wicket stands, some quality mirroring going on with the sides this Test.
4.08pm So Sri Lanka are all out for 506, and they have a lead of 141. Angelo Mathews remains unbeaten on 145, while Shakib is the pick of the Bangladeshi bowlers with figures of 5 for 96 - his 19th five-wicket haul in Tests. Ebadot ends with figures of 4 for 148. Everything was going well for Sri Lanka until Chandimal fell trying to up the ante. After that it was wickets at regular intervals, until Mathews eventually ran out of partners. Sri Lanka though will feel that they're the only team that can get a result from here, with the wicket assisting the bowlers a little more now. Bangladesh will have about an hour to bat out today, let's see how they get on in a bit.
