Opener Lasith Croospulle shone for Sri Lanka ‘A’ on day one of the four-day 2nd unofficial Test match against England Lions played at the Galle International Stadium on Tuesday.
The match was hampered by heavy rain and was called off at 4.00 p.m. with Sri Lanka ‘A’, taking first lease of the wicket, after skipper Nipun Dhananjaya won the toss.

Croospulle was involved in three fruitful partnerships, first for 59 runs with opening partner Nishan Madushka.
He then partnered with Nuwanidu Fernando to put on 93 runs for the second wicket, before an unbroken fourth wicket partnership for 41 runs with Dhananjaya took the hosts to stumps.
The match will be continued today.
