Australia's cricket tour of Sri Lanka was meant to help distract from the island nation's economic misery, but on Saturday the unrest sweeping the country came within shouting distance of the pitch. Hundreds of people climbed the walls of the scenic Galle Fort in the morning session of the second Test for a protest condemning President Gotabaya Rajapaksa for mismanagement of the country's finances. Looking down on the field as Australia finished their innings, the crowd's loud chants demanding Rajapaksa's resignation came only two hours before an angry crowd in the capital forced the president to flee his home.
