Sri Lanka vs Ireland Live Score, 1st Test Day 2: Islanders Look To Build On

Sri Lanka sit in a comfortable position, after putting a solid total of 386 runs on the board on Day 1 of the first Test against Ireland at Galle. Dimuth Karunaratne and Kusal Mendis scored a century each on the opening day. As the second day resumes, Dinesh Chandimal and Prabath Jayasuriya would look to restart from where the Lankans left off on the first day. Ireland would hope to strike early on Day 2 if they stand any chance of limiting the damage that the Lankans have already done. (LIVE Scorecard)
