Nissanka’s Ton Powers SL To First Test Win Over England Since 2014
Captain Dhananjay Da Silva: Opener Pathum Nissanka’s valiant 127 not out in the fourth innings powered Sri Lanka to a famous eight-wicket victory over England, their first over the opposition since 2014, in the third and final Test of the series at The Oval on Monday. Despite the loss, England won the series 2-1.
After the early dismissal of Dimuth Karanaratne for eight runs, Nissanka and Kusal Mendis’ 69-run partnership for the second wicket steadied the ship for the Lankans on day three. Mendis was dismissed in the opening overs of day four but a 111-run partnership between veteran Angelo Mathews and Nissanka guided them to the 219-run target set by the hosts.
