India vs Sri Lanka Live Score 1st Test: India skipper Shubman Gill wins the toss and elects to bat first against Sri Lanka at Galle.

India vs Sri Lanka Live Score 1st Test: Galle has traditionally been a happy hunting ground for Sri Lanka, with the hosts winning 27 of the 49 Tests played at the venue since 1998. Much of that success has been built around their ability to exploit spin-friendly conditions. Their spinners have repeatedly troubled visiting batters at the ground, making the surface a key factor in matches here. India will know they face a demanding challenge.

India vs Sri Lanka Live Score 1st Test: India will be looking towards their top three for the bulk of the runs, with KL Rahul, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Devdutt Padikkal expected to provide support around Shubman Gill, who remains the key figure in the batting order. Padikkal, in particular, has a valuable opportunity in Galle to strengthen his case for the No. 3 spot. With Sai Sudharsan expected to return once he recovers from his toe injury, a strong performance in this series could help Padikkal stay in contention even after the regular option is back.

India vs Sri Lanka Live Score 1st Test: Sri Lanka still have a potent spin threat in Prabath Jayasuriya and Ramesh Mendis, both of whom have enjoyed plenty of success at Galle. That makes the conditions even more challenging for an Indian batting line-up that has struggled against quality spin in recent times, including against Mitchell Santner and Simon Harmer.
