1st Test: Rain Delays Start Of Day 2 Play In Galle
Galle International Stadium: Heavy rain has delayed the scheduled start of play on day two of the opening Test between India and Sri Lanka at the Galle International Stadium here on Sunday.
The entire ground was brought under covers from early morning hours as persistent showers hit the coastal city. Play was originally slated to begin 15 minutes ahead of scheduled time to compensate for the overs lost to inclement weather on day one.
"Update from Galle. Start of play on Day 2 has been delayed due to rain. Stay tuned for further updates," the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) posted on its 'X' account. With the weather forecast offering little optimism for early clearance and rest of the day, the 130 ground staff members at Galle face an uphill task to dry and prepare the ground for play to begin as quickly as possible.
