Sri Lanka's Rangana Herath bagged three wickets in five overs before the West Indies reached 303-8 in their first innings on the penultimate day of the third and final Test on Saturday.

Sulieman Benn was unbeaten on 29 with the help of two sixes and Kemar Roach on 12 not out when play was called off due to rain after just 22.3 overs in the day.

The series is tied 0-0 following rain-hit Tests in Colombo and Galle.

With just one day remaining, this Test is also heading for a draw.

The West Indies added 59 runs to their Thursday's total of 244-5, with left-arm spinner Herath being the only successful bowler. No play was possible on Friday due to rain.

Herath has so far taken four wickets for 54 runs in the innings and spinner Ajantha Mendis two. Seamers Suranga Lakmal and Dilhara Fernando have bagged one wicket apiece.
