Turning Points

India v Sri Lanka, 3rd Test, Mumbai, 5th day

Kumar Sangakkara falls in the first over. A length delivery from Zaheer Khan that cuts away late, the perfect legcutter, and Sangakkara pushes at it and gets a thin edge. Sri Lanka lose their final specialist batsman.

Zaheer completes his five-for, removing Nuwan Kualsekara and putting India one wicket away from victory. A short ball was too good for Kulasekara, who could only prod it to second slip.

Muttiah Muralitharan gave some brief cheer for Sri Lankan fans, clouting a few boundaries but Harbhajan Singh ended that and the Test by getting Murali to edge to the keeper.
