India seize control in Galle Test, dominate Sri Lanka

India's batting line‑up built a solid first‑innings total at the Galle International Stadium, giving the visitors a clear advantage early in the match. The partnership between the top order and the middle order steadied the innings, allowing India to post a score that put Sri Lanka under pressure. Sri Lanka's response was hampered by early wickets, and the hosts struggled to keep pace with the run rate. As the day progressed, India tightened its grip, with disciplined fielding and tight bowling further restricting the hosts. The momentum now firmly lies with India as the Test heads into its next session.
