The second day's play in the first cricket Test between India and Sri Lanka was called off without a single ball being bowled due to persistent rains in Gale. The outfield was already wet due to overnight showers and things only got worse due to more rain this morning. It is monsoon season in Sri Lanka right now and the weatherman has predicted overcast conditions for all five days of the match. Sri Lankan off-spinner Muralitharan is set to bid adieu to his 18-year-old career at the end of it but rains gods are threatening to play spoilsport.Sri Lanka remained on their overnight score of 256 for two. All India Radio will broadcast running commentary on the 3rd day's play from 9:25 AM onwards on Rajdhani and FM Gold Channels.
