2nd Test: SL Fight Back Against India To Reach 229/4 Before Rain Ends Day 4 Early
India’s decision to enforce the follow-on came under serious scrutiny before their bowlers regained control late on the fourth day of the second Test against Sri Lanka, with rain eventually forcing an early close at the Sinhalese Sports Club Ground.
Sri Lanka, bowled out for 290 in their first innings after resuming the day at 265 for eight, were asked to bat again after falling 213 runs short of India’s imposing 503 for nine declared. By close of day, the hosts had reached 227 for six, a lead of 16, leaving India four wickets away from victory but with the weather threatening to become the decisive factor.
