Normal service resumed in a home Test match as Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja rattled Sri Lanka in the final session on Day 1 in Nagpur to bundle out the visitors for 205. After labouring through for two sessions, Sri Lanka lost their way in the last where they lost six wickets for 45 runs. There were fifties for Dimuth Karunaratne and Dinesh Chandimal, but the lack of support from rest of the line-up hampered the visitors' progress. In reply, India lost KL Rahul early and finished on 11 for 1 at stumps.

Brief Scores: Sri Lanka 205 (Dinesh Chandimal 57, Dimuth Karunaratne 51; Ravichandran Ashwin 4-67, Ravindra Jadeja 3-56, Ishant Sharma 3-37) lead India 11/1 (Lahiru Gamage 1-4) by 194 runs
