Lahiru Kumara delivered 13.3 hostile overs, and Kasun Rajitha was probing on Test debut, but a half-century from Devon Smith drove West Indies forward on a rain-hit second day.

They stand only 135 runs behind Sri Lanka, with eight wickets still in hand.

Only 42.3 overs were delivered in the day, the rain arriving during lunch to wash out much of the afternoon and evening sessions before stumps were eventually drawn due to bad light at 5:55 pm.

At stumps, the Windies were on 118 for 2 with Smith unbeaten on 53.
