Sri Lanka make steady progress in a rain-hit day three of the first Test against Pakistan by reaching tea on 252-2.

Sri Lanka have made steady progress in a rain-hit day three of the first Test against Pakistan after ending the afternoon session on 252-2 with the help of Kumar Sangakkara's century.

The 36-year-old, who survived an lbw shout on 13 runs, led Sri Lanka's attack by storming to his Test century after lunch.

Openers Upul Tharanga (19) and Kaushal Silva (64) were the first to go in Sri Lanka's innings, but Sangakkara has helped his side build up their total alongside Mahela Jayawardene.

The 37-year-old managed to earn a half-century in Galle, despite bad weather causing a number of delays for the players.

Once the dreary weather clears up, Sangakkara (102 not out) and Jayawardene (55 not out) will return to the crease.

Sri Lanka trail Pakistan by 199 runs.
