England vs Sri Lanka 1st Test Day 2 Live: Dhananjaya de Silva and debutant fast bowler Milan Rathnayake both made fine fifties as Sri Lanka recovered from a dramatic top-order collapse on Wednesday’s opening day of the first Test against England at Old Trafford.

Yet they recovered to 236 all out, De Silva top-scoring with 74 and tailender Rathnayake, with only his third first-class fifty, close behind in making 72. The pair checked England’s progress during an eighth-wicket partnership of 63, with no other Sri Lanka batsman making more than Kusal Mendis‘s 24. (Live Scorecard)
