During the final minutes of Day 2 of the second Test between India and Sri Lanka in Colombo, Sri Lanka players react angrily to an umpiring decision related to fading light. The controversy centres on the umpires allowing play to continue despite conditions reducing visibility.
Multiple reports describe Sri Lanka’s frustration with the decision and the tension it creates between the teams. The situation escalates quickly, with on-field events reflecting the hosts’ unhappiness with how officials handled the closing stages of the day. NDTV also reports that a batter throws his gloves into the dressing room amid the dispute.
The accounts focus on the same core incident—umpires not stopping play as light fades and Sri Lanka’s subsequent fume at the ruling. The difference across outlets is mainly in emphasis and detail around the reaction moments rather than the underlying facts of the call and its timing.
