Sri Lanka, Aug. 24 -- Trent Boult and Tim Southee both produced superb overs to put New Zealand on top at lunch, reducing Sri Lanka to 144 for 6.

However, rain that has disrupted the Test returned, washing out the remainder of the day's play to leave just 66 overs bowled in the first two days, and a draw the most likely outcome.
