Sri Lanka were 356 for 9 at stumps on third day of third Test against India at Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi on Monday. India in the match with five wickets in the final session after Angelo Mathews and Dinesh Chandimal scored centuries to frustrate the Indian bowlers in the first two session. Chandimal was batting on 98, a composed knock containing 13 boundaries, and will be key to Sri Lanka's hopes of reducing, if not completely erasing, the 266-run deficit. Mathews rode his luck to score 111 after being spilled twice on Monday to go with Sunday's early reprieve. After the second day was blighted by complaints of air pollution by the visitors, Sri Lanka resumed on a slightly hazy morning on 131 for three.
