Lengthy rain interruptions put paid to the Australian cricketers' hopes of wrapping up a series-clinching win over Sri Lanka on the final day of the second test in Kandy.
The umpires called off the match after only 35 overs were able to be bowled in the first two sessions, and Sri Lanka had reached 317 for six in their second innings, a lead of 80 runs.
Australia lead the series 1-nil, and the third and final match starts in Colombo on Friday.
