Surrey wicketkeeper Smith's 111 was the centrepiece of England's 358 all out a total that left them 122 runs ahead of Sri Lanka's 236 on the third day of this three-Test series.
Tailender Wood made a typically quickfire 22 off 13 balls, including three fours and a superb hooked six over square leg off Asitha Fernando that was caught one-handed by a spectator in the crowd holding a pint in his other hand.
Asitha Fernando, however, had his revenge when he bowled Wood as he backed away and the paceman finished the innings with figures of 4-103 in 18 overs.
