England have taken two wickets in the first session on the first day of the second Test match against Sri Lanka at Headingley to leave the visitors on 74-2.
Dimuth Karunaratne and Kaushal Silva got Sri Lanka off to a steady, if slow, start but the former was finally bowled for 28 by a quick one from Liam Plunkett.
Silva had already been dispatched when he edged behind to Matt Prior off the bowling of Jimmy Anderson for 13. England should have had a third, but Stuart Broad's appeal to review an lbw decision fell on his teammates' deaf ears, with replays showing that it would have been overturned.
The ever-reliable pair of Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene guided the visitors to the lunch break on 15 and five runs respectively.
