Sri Lanka's three-day warm-up game with the British Universities petered out into a draw at Wantage Road on Saturday as the tourists opted for some batting practice in their second innings.

Sri Lanka's seamers started to show signs of adjustment to English conditions – although Chaminda Vaas failed to take a wicket during the day – and British Universities were bowled out 102 in arrears.

Ishara Amerasinghe, the only uncapped player in the tour party, who came into the squad as cover for the injured Dilhara Fernando, had the best figures of three for 46.

Charitha Fernando, favourite to partner Vaas and Nuwan Zoysa at Lords, and Eric Upashanta proved expensive, but picked up two wickets each after the Universities had resumed on 37 for two

Sri Lanka then faced 24 overs in their second innings, establishing a trivial 230-run lead before stumps were taken, with Kumar Sangakkara and Sanath Jayasuriya both scoring fifties, their first runs of the tour.

The tourists have two further matches against Durham and Middlesex before the first Test starts at Lord's on 16 May.
