Sangakkara has left the building
Kumar Sangakkara departs early in final innings of his career; Sri Lanka reduced to 72/2 after Ajinkya Rahane ton helps India set target of 413.

Injured Saha, Vijay out; Nair, Ojha in
Wriddhiman Saha and Murali Vijay ruled out of the tour with hamstring injuries—one sustained the other reoccurred—and replaced by Naman Ojha and Karun Nair.
