Heavy overnight rain in Galle leaked under the cover onto the pitch area, and delayed the start of play for 3 hours. Play began at 1130GMT with 1 hour of play scheduled. 17 overs were bowled before bad light forced an early close. Due to water seeping under the covers after overnight rain the first two sessions were abandoned. A shower at the scheduled start time delayed play for one hour. The two remaining sessions will have 30 minutes added to them to make up the lost time.
