Welcome back to the final session of Day 4. With the ball doing plenty off the spinners, New Zealand have their work cut out.
15:10 Local Time, 09:40 GMT, 15:10 IST: That's tea and this Test is very well poised at the moment. New Zealand added 101 runs in the session, but they've lost three wickets in doing so. The session was mainly about the Sri Lankan spinners and they battled gamely. There's enough assistance from the pitch, but the lengths haven't been consistent enough. And when they've been consistent, they have troubled the batters. Kane Williamson ran past a beauty, Tom Latham was pinned in the crease and Daryl Mitchell was pinned in the crease. Rachin Ravindra has fought bravely, but he'll need support from Tom Blundell, who has started positively. They still have some batting to come, but they'll hope for this pair to stitch a big stand together. Back shortly for the final session.

Ramesh Mendis to Ravindra, 1 run, turn and bounce from outside off, but it's short and lets Rachin punch it square past point for a single
36.5
Ramesh Mendis to Blundell, 1 run, to deep mid-wicket
36.4
Ramesh Mendis to Blundell, FOUR, beautifully played, Blundell brings out the reverse sweep, gets right off the middle of the bat, rolled his wrists over and beat the fielder running to his right at deep point
