Watch Sri Lanka Vs. Pakistan Day 3 Live Online: Test Cricket Streaming Video From Galle
Cricket fans can watch live online as Sri Lanka and Pakistan continue to battle the weather to play out their First Test Match as it moves into Day 3 on Friday. So far, there have been only 64 overs bowled with Pakistan yet to bat thanks to the torrential rains that drenched the National Stadium in Galle, Sri Lanka.
The weather forecast for Galle looks better on Day 3, with morning thunderstorms predicted to let up around 11 a.m., meaning that the start of play might be delayed, but the two teams should nonetheless be able to get in a nearly full day of Test cricket.
To find out how to watch the Sri Lanka vs. Pakistan First Test live online, see the information at the bottom of this article. Play on Day 3 is scheduled to start Friday morning at 10 a.m. in Galle — that’s 12:30 a.m. in United States Eastern Time, 9:30 p.m. on Thursday, Pacific Time.
The abbreviated Day 2 action saw Pakistan Captain Misbah-ul-Haq win the toss — which had been postponed from the washed-out Day One — and controversially choose to allow Sri Lanka to bat first.
Sri Lanka responded with a 178/3 total, including half-centuries from Kumar Sangakkara, with an even 50, and Kaushal Silva, who put 80 on the board and remained unbeaten. His partnership with Angelo Matthews, at 10 not out, was just getting started when stumps were pulled.
Pakistan World Cup star Wahab Riaz claimed two of the three wickets, dismissing Sangakkara and opener Dimuth Karunaratne, who went out for just 21.
