The second test match between Sri Lanka and Australia is currently underway at the Galle International Cricket Stadium but a much more significant protest is currently taking place outside the grounds.
‘GotaGoHome’ protestors have now made their way to the Galle Fort, overlooking the grounds breaking Police barricades. The public was banned from visiting the area, from yesterday.
“The Sri Lankans have taken back Galle Fort,” tweeted Australian Cricket Commentator Geoff Lemon from Galle. (NewsWire)
