No play was possible on day two of the final Test between Sri Lanka and Pakistan in Pallekele due to rain.

Incessant downpours throughout the day, the heaviest in the region for two months, ensured the covers remained in place and the players indoors.

Umpires Steve Davis and Simon Taufel waited until 3pm local time before deciding there was no chance of any action.

Sri Lanka, who lead the three-match series 1-0, are due to resume on 44-3 in reply to Pakistan's first innings of 226.
