GALLE, Sri Lanka: India beat Sri Lanka by 304 runs on the fourth day of the first test on Saturday to take a 1-0 lead in the three-test series.

Asela Gunaratne, who had fractured his thumb and was ruled out of the series, and stand-in captain Rangana Herath, who suffered a hand injury on Friday, did not bat for Sri Lanka in the second innings.
