India began their reply after Sri Lanka Cricket XI declared their first innings at 363 for eight on day two of the warm-up match in Colombo. Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal fell for a duck off the second ball, caught off Vishwa Fernando. Devdutt Padikkal and stand-in captain KL Rahul rebuilt, with India at 50 for one at the time of writing. Captain Shubman Gill is unlikely to bat after hurting his right ring finger in training. Left-arm spinners Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, and Manav Suthar each took two wickets to restrict the hosts. The three-day game is India's only match practice before the first Test starts on August 15.
