Galle Weather Forecast

The weather in the scenic Sri Lankan town of Galle is not expected to be ideal for Test cricket for the next 5 days. Rain showers are🧔 expected to interrupt play and create damp conditions in an otherwise batting-friendly solid pitch. However, the weather is anticipated to change during the course of the match and restore back to normal during the later stages of the Test match. The overcast conditions will however, trouble the batters and the outfield is expeꦏcted to slow down a bit making it difficult for batters to score boundaries.
