Let’s see how it pans out. Stay tuned.

...Day 2, Session 1...

Sri Lanka needed an early wicket and Asitha Fernando provided them with the start they were after. He could've also gotten the better of Shan Masood if they would've reviewed an lbw decision which the umpire had turned down, and this could've helped them to shift the momentum on their side, but it was not to be.
