However, that was not the end of the embarrassment for the fielding unit today as Bhuvneshwar Kumar was left red faced 14 balls later for a gaffe that was equally, if not worse than, Pandya's one. On the third ball of the 37th over, Sachith Pathirana poked a Kumar delivery towards the point where Karthik was stationed. The Tamil Nadu player got low to his left and collected the ball that created doubt in the minds of the batsmen, both of whom looked stranded at the striker's end. Gunaratne, who had waltz over to the striker's end, decided to turn around and make a run for the other end. However, he looked like a man walking the green mile as the throw was Karthik's throw was straight at Bhuvneshwar. The Indian pacer, though, failed to collect the ball as it bounced out of his hands with Gunaratne still scampering to make his way back.  

While India had already wrestled back control of the game, Sri Lanka still looked dangerous due to the docile nature of the pitch. Keeping that in mind as the camera panned towards the stand-in skipper, there were a variety of expressions on his face. Ranging from an obvious disappointed one to a one fo pure frustration, Rohit didn't fail to pull off expressions that would have made Aamir Khan proud.
