India vs Sri Lanka Live Score, 1st Test day 2: Devdutt Padikkal and Rishabh Pant to resume for IND vs SL in Galle
In the second day of the first Test match between India and Sri Lanka in Galle, Devdutt Padikkal and Rishabh Pant resumed their unbeaten partnership at the crease. India's captain, Shubman Gill, had opted to bat first after winning the toss on a flat wicket at the Galle venue. Unfortunately, Yashasvi Jaiswal was run out early in the first session. KL Rahul joined Padikkal and put up a valiant effort, but cramps forced him to retire hurt in the final session.
Skipper Shubman Gill returned to the crease and displayed some excellent driving before attempting a run down the ground against Prabath Jayasuriya, resulting in his dismissal. The Sri Lankan bowlers faced a tough day, failing to make a significant impact on the game. Debutant Keshara Nuwanatha had shown some promise but was mostly inconsistent throughout his spell.
The match between India and Sri Lanka continued as the source material concluded.
