"Glenn Maxwell's immediate hopes of a Test return may have dampened as Travis Head showed few signs of his hamstring strain during Australia's first training session in the seaside city of Galle.
Amid brief showers that twice interrupted the Aussies' practice, Head completed a series of extended run-throughs before having a long bat in the nets in the Sunday afternoon heat.
Maxwell has been called in as cover for the incumbent No.5 batter but his five-year Test absence will continue if Head is passed fit for Wednesday's series opener against Sri Lanka at the picturesque seaside venue that sits in the shadow of a historic fort overlooking the Indian ocean."

Lankans fight back after early wickets.
Dimuth Karunaratne won the toss and elected to bat first, in the first Test against Australia.
After early wickets to Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc, the Aussie spinners, Nathan Lyon & Mitch Swepson took 4 wickets to see the home team on a precarious 6/139.
But Niroshan Dickwella (51*) and Ramesh Mendis (22*) are fighting back.
Tea. 6/191.
