KANPUR, India, Nov 25 (Reuters) - Rahul Dravid completed his 28th test century and moved into fourth place on the all-time scorers list as India tightened their grip on the second test against Sri Lanka on Wednesday.
Dravid made a superb 144 after becoming the third player to score a hundred before India were all out for 642 soon after tea on the second day.
Sri Lankan left-arm spinner Rangana Herath triggered a late batting slump, grabbing five wickets by striking either side of the interval on a slow Green Park pitch.
Herath captured five for 121, his fourth five-wicket haul in a test innings, taking all but one of the last six wickets which tumbled for 29 runs.
Sri Lanka reached 66 for one at stumps after a nightmare start when opener Tillakaratne Dilshan was out for a first ball duck when he top-edged a loosener down the leg side from paceman Zaheer Khan to be caught at mid-on. Continued...
