Yashasvi Jaiswal was run out for 32 after a confusing mix-up with KL Rahul during India’s first Test against Sri Lanka in Galle on Saturday. Rahul’s drive caused both batters to set off, but Jaiswal slipped after colliding with bowler Keshara Nuwantha. The pair then ended up at the same end, leaving Jaiswal short of his ground. Sri Lanka’s wicketkeeper Niroshan Dickwella checked with captain Dhananjaya de Silva before removing the bails, with the umpires confirming the dismissal. Earlier, Nishan Madushka was struck on the helmet by Rahul’s sweep while fielding at short leg. He received concussion checks from the physio and left the field. India are playing their 600th Test, with both sides seeking World Test Championship points.
