Mathews ton helps Lanka to 264/7 against India
July 6 (CRICKETNMORE) Placed precariously at 55/4 in the 12th over against India at the Headingley Cricket Ground on Saturday, Sri Lanka finally saw their most experienced batsman rise to the challenge as Angelo Mathews hit a slow yet steady 113 off 128 balls (4x10, 6x2) to take the island nation to 264/7 in their 50 overs.
A 124-run partnership with Lahiru Thirimanne (53; 68 balls, 4x4) went a long way in bringing the Lankans back into their final World Cup game.
