    India's Padikkal, Gill Form Century Stand in Colombo

    Devdutt Padikkal and Shubman Gill scored a century partnership in the first innings of the second Test against Sri Lanka in Colombo. The left-right pair showed patience and composure, frustrating the hosts with their solid defence and assured footwork. This was only the third time India's No. 3 and No. 4 batters formed a hundred-run partnership since 2019. Padikkal scored his second consecutive century, repeating a feat last achieved by Cheteshwar Pujara in 2018-19. The partnership could become the central piece of India's batting.
