India-Sri Lanka Test cricket series

Overview

During the first Test match between India and Sri Lanka at the Galle International Stadium, Indian batsman KL Rahul scored 77 runs off 162 balls before being forced to retire hurt. His departure was caused by severe leg cramping and intense pain in his right-hand finger.

Rahul’s innings was noted for his technical preparation against spin bowling, specifically against Prabath Jayasuriya. His methodical approach provided stability for teammates Yashasvi Jaiswal and Devdutt Padikkal. Following his retirement, captain Shubman Gill took his place in the lineup.
