What color does Universal indicator turn in diluted hydrochloric acid?

Hydrochloric Acid is known to be a very strong acid. A 0.01 molar solution of HCl has a pH of 2 ( -log(0.01) ) which on the pH scale is very acidic (under 7 is acidic, 7 is neutral, over 7 is basic). On a universal indicator test, HCl would come out as red. A basic solution would be a more blue-green, or green depending on the concentration.
This is a color chart for a universal indicator test:
