Only 53 overs were possible on the opening day of England vs. Sri Lanka first Test as heavens opened thereafter the play was abandoned. Sri Lankan bowlers did a fine job by removing five English batsmen early, before Alex Hales and Jonny Bairstow did the repair work with an unbeaten 88-run stand for the sixth wicket.
