India reached 460 for 9 at stumps on Sunday in the first Test against Sri Lanka, with play restricted by rain that caused a five-hour delay and 55 lost overs.
Devdutt Padikkal top-scored with 167 runs, while Dhruv Jurel added 51, as debutant Keshara Nuwantha claimed 3-175 and Prabath Jayasuriya took 4-109 to lead the Sri Lankan bowling attack.
With only three days of play remaining and further rain forecast, India faces pressure to accelerate the game to push for a victory in the ongoing series opener.
