Sri Lanka v Pakistan: No play on day one in rainy Galle
Wednesday 17 June 2015 10:35, UK
Incessant rain in Galle meant no play was possible on the opening day of the first Test between Sri Lanka and Pakistan.
Play was called off for the day at 2.30pm local time with the heavy covers still on and no end in sight to the bad weather in the coastal city.
Some of the lost time will be made up by play starting earlier for the remainder of the match, weather permitting, but the forecast is not particularly positive for the next four days.
Sri Lanka and Pakistan are due to play three Tests, followed by five one-day internationals and two Twenty20 matches in a comprehensive series that doesn't finish until August 1.
