Dhananjaya De Silva Hails Hundred Hero Pathum Nissanka As Sri Lanka End England Drought
Sri Lanka captain Dhananjaya de Silva said Pathum Nissanka had proved himself the "best batsman" in the country after the opener's superb century at the Oval helped the team end their 10-year wait for a Test win over England.
Nissanka made 127 not out as Sri Lanka cruised to the target of 219, before lunch on the fourth day as they won the third Test by eight wickets. England took the three-match series 2-1 after victories at Old Trafford (by five wickets) and Lord's (by 190 runs).
