Batting paradise for first 2.5 days with condition apply, if you can play the spin. Other than that, it's spin stronghold and one of the difficult pitch of subcontinent.
In fact, nothing can be said for sure about Bangladesh's batting, where the first two sessions of the first day and the second day, that is, before the rain, were a batting paradise, but after the rain, the batting paradise changed and became a bowling paradise. Where Bangladesh lost five wickets for just 26 runs after Mushi and Liton Das were dismissed. If Bangladesh had had the chance to bat for one more over, they would have been all out.
Farewell test match for veteran Angelo Mathews who is playing 119th and last test match for his country injuries and other problems hit badly to this good skilled all-rounder who fail to achieve few good things during his career for Sri Lanka.

I was expecting this type pitch but Bangladesh's good luck they won toss and have 2 big innings from their experienced players now 10 to 15 more runs could be good for having good end of their inning. Marathon spells for Sri Lankan spinners as Prabath Jayasuriya 48 overs with 154 runs without any wicket and Tharindu Rathnayake 49 overs with 196 runs 3 wickets pick of the bowlers but Mushfiqur Rahim 163 and Najmul Hossain Shanto 148 steal the show now I am expecting one big inning from Angelo Mathews if he gets the chance because weather is now also important factor in this bore test match at Galle.
