This is it from us here. England were clinical. Test cricket came back after months and showed us how it has so many hidden colours draped in whites. England will party hard tonight. Mathews might want to keep a session with his compatriots, he needs to figure out how to tackle the English pace battery. He does not have much time to find the formulae. Hope he finds that soon and provides us with an even competition next time. Join us for the second Test which starts on 27th of this month. It's goodbye from Abhishek Chaudhary, Sagar Chawla, Mani and Krishna.Bairstow: Well, it was outstanding the way Jimmy bowled. It is a pleasure to keep there, you are always there in the game. We needed to exploit the conditions here. I am pleased with the way I am striking the ball, but there are still things to be worked on. It was soft, I was really annoyed actually (on him getting
disappointed after getting out). It has been absolutely fantastic, the crowd has been brilliant. It is really special for me. Really appreciate this."Bairstow is the Man of the Match for his knock of 140 and 9 catchesCook: "It was a ruthless performance, quite nice performance, good catching from us. If we had few more days (about the bad weather forecast), we would have batted again. We were not even sure about Ben. I thought Bairstow was batting on a different wicket. Even Hales allowed himself, was really disciplined. His partnership with Bairstow set the game for us. 280 was more than par on this track. It will be great to go up 2-0 as well."Mathews: "It was a tough game for us. We batted poorly.
Hales and Bairstow batted brilliantly for them, we even dropped a few catches. Bit of worries for us, but we need to regroup and bounce back hard. You just have to be fearless, the batters could have done better but it was against a top quality seam attack. Yeah, you have to give yourself some chance. You cannot make too many changes. We have got three days to comeback. It is tough against Anderson and Broad under these conditions."Time to hear from the captainsWhen Cook imposed the follow-on yesterday, many would have thought that it was asking too much from his bowlers. But that was not the case to be. The conditions were cold and nice and he had the two best soldiers for such conditions. Anderson bowled like a champion and did not break a sweat. Sri Lanka would now know that life is not going to get easier from here.So all it took was nine balls from England's seamers to dismantle the Lankan tail. It took Anderson years to get a five wicket haul here at Leeds and boy he did set the record straight bagging two in this very Test. There is not much to write about this game. The Three Lions played like lions and did not allow the Lankans the liberty to apply themselves.

India is having a marvellous year with back-to–back series wins and each and every player showing excellent form. One or the other player always comes through for the team and stupendous performances from Indian bowlers have the men in blue as the top team in ICC rankings for tests as well as ODIs. They are all set to become the world T20 champions as well.
Sri Lanka, on the other hand, isn’t looking so good. They just had a devastating tour in UAE against Pakistan even after registering a test series win against them. The team did defeat Pakistan in both the test matches but lost all ODIs and T20Is after that. They are looking forward for a change of fortunes with their tour of India and win back the respect. The aim of the team is going to be to sweep the series, a repeat of what India did to them on their home ground.

Indian Cricket Team:
Ajinkya Rahane, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli (c), Murali Vijay, Cheteshwar Pujara, Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Ravinchandran Ashwin, Umesh Yadav, Lokesh Rahul, Shikhar Dhawan, Mohammed Shami and Ishant Sharma
Sri Lankan Cricket Team:
Although the squad has not been announced yet, it is predicted that Sri Lanka would take the same squad that went to the UAE tour.
Dimuth Karunaratne, Dinesh Chandimal(c), Lahiru Thirimanne, Sadeera Samarawickrama, Roshen Silva, Kaushal Silva, Kusal Mendis, Niroshan Dickwella, Rangana Herath, Suranga Lakmal, Nuwan Pradeep, Lakshan Sandakan, Dilruwan Perera,Vishwa Fernando and Lahiru Gamage
Players to Watch and Match Prediction:
Jadeja and Ashwin would be playing in this test match and if the pitch turns predicatably, they are going to have a field day with Sri Lankan batsmen. Rohit Sharma smashed 264 against Sri Lanka on this very ground in November, 2014 and if he plays, this is going to be a fun match to watch. Virat Kohli and Ajinkya Rahane are the best test players India has.
Sri Lankans have had trouble keeping a partnership running, which is really important when it comes to tests. Dinesh Chandimal and Niroshan Dickwella led Sri Lanka to victory by playing wonderfully in the test against Pakistan; they will be gearing up to do the same in India. Karunaratne is expected to continue with his Pakistan form and Rangana Herath, Sri Lanka’s star spinner is expected to be a thorn for the Indian side.
The Sri Lankan side may be low on confidence, but the Pakistan win would have boosted their confidence, and let’s not forget, when in form they are a formidable team to face on the ground. Therefore, if Sri Lanka puts up a fight, the men in blue may not have it as easy as they did last time around.
