New Delhi: There is a continuous shadow of rain on the first Test being played between India and Sri Lanka in Galle. A lot of time was wasted in the first two days due to weather and now the possibility of rain on the third day has increased the concern of the fans. By the end of the second day's play, India had scored 460 runs for 9 wickets. In such a situation, Team India is definitely in a strong position, but due to continuously decreasing playing time, the possibility of the match being a draw is increasing.

Rain will become villain on third day also

There is a possibility of about 83 percent rain in Galle on the third day. If the weather is bad, the match may stop again and again. Even in the first two days, due to rain, much less play could be played than the scheduled overs.

India is currently on the score of 460/9 in its first innings. Kuldeep Yadav and Prasidh Krishna are present at the crease. If due to rain, there are not enough overs on the third day, then it will be difficult to find time to complete Sri Lanka's two innings and India's second innings.

India scored 460 runs

The biggest attraction of India's innings on the second day was Devdutt Padikkal. He scored a brilliant 167 runs and played one of his best innings in Test cricket. Apart from them, KL Rahul played important innings of 82 runs and Dhruv Jurel played 51 runs.

However, the Sri Lankan spinners later made a comeback and put pressure on the Indian batsmen. Prabhat Jayasuriya took four wickets, while Keshara Nuwantha got three wickets.

Match heading towards a draw?

Due to India having a big score, the hope of victory is still there, but in the test match, it is necessary to have enough games for the result. If more overs are wasted on the third day due to continuous rain, then it may be difficult for India to get a chance to bat in the second innings by dismissing Sri Lanka. This means that Team India has a chance to take the lead, but the biggest challenge at this time is not the Sri Lankan team but the weather of Galle.
