Sri Lanka captain Dinesh Chandimal won the toss and elected to bat first in the second match of the three-test series against India in Nagpur on Friday. Ishant Sharma, who replaced Mohammed Shami, made short work of Lankan opener Sadeera Samarawickrama. Sri Lanka, who lost 9-0 across all formats at home against India earlier this year, went in unchanged for the second test. "Looks like a really good test pitch and we need to get the maximum out of it," Chandimal said after winning his second straight toss in the series. The wicket has a good grass area on good length," India captain Virat Kohli said.
