By IANS News December 10, 2024 • 10:04 AM View: 390

ICC World Test Championship: Sri Lanka's head coach Sanath Jayasuriya has expressed disappointment over the team's performance in the recent Test series against South Africa, saying his side couldn't stay in the game long enough to challenge the Proteas side.

Sri Lanka have lost the second Test at St. George's Park in Gqeberha by 109 runs, losing the series 2-0, which has come as a huge blow to Sri Lanka's hopes for a place in the ICC World Test Championship final.
