Yashasvi Jaiswal was run out for 32 after a bizarre mix-up with KL Rahul and a collision with Sri Lanka bowler Keshara Nuwantha on day one of the first Test in Galle. The incident happened on the final ball of the 11th over. Rahul drove a delivery towards mid-on and called for a single. As Jaiswal responded, Nuwantha moved to field and collided with him. Jaiswal lost balance and fell. Rahul hesitated. Jaiswal then changed direction, leaving both batters stranded. Rahul made his crease first and wicketkeeper Niroshan Dickwella broke the stumps after umpires checked the appeal. Jaiswal had scored 32 off 37 balls, hitting five fours. Former India batter Sanjay Manjrekar on commentary said Jaiswal seemed 'lost in his own world'. The opening stand had reached 47. India won the toss and batted first at Galle.
