Ojha kept a tidy line and length, removing Jayawardene (12) and Chamara Kapugedera (26) in the process.

Jayawardene, who won the first toss of the series, was held in the covers by Yuvraj and Kapugedera was caught in the deep by Rudra Pratap Singh while going for a big shot.

Rudra Pratap also claimed a wicket when he had Sangakkara (1) caught by Gambhir at first slip. Sangakkara made just 37 runs in five matches.
