SL vs AFG Only Test, Day 3 Preview
The historic first Test between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan took another turn on Day 2, with the hosts solidifying their control at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo. Let’s recap the key moments from Day 2 and set the stage for what promises to be an exciting Day 3.
Day 2 Summary:
- Afghanistan (198/10): After electing to bat, the tourists found themselves bundled out for 198 runs. Rahmat Shah’s fighting 91 provided some resistance, but Sri Lanka’s bowlers, led by Vishwa Fernando’s four-wicket haul, kept them in check.
- Sri Lanka (410/6): In reply, the Lankan lions roared. Openers Dimuth Karunaratne and Nishan Madushka set the tone, followed by magnificent centuries from Angelo Mathews and Dinesh Chandimal. Skipper Dhananjaya de Silva chipped in with a valuable fifty, pushing the score to a commanding 410/6 at stumps, leading by 212 runs.
Key Players:
- Dimuth Karunaratne: The experienced opener provided a solid foundation with a well-compiled 42.
- Angelo Mathews: The veteran all-rounder showed his class with a dominant 122, putting Sri Lanka in firm control.
- Dinesh Chandimal: The wicketkeeper-batsman continued his good form with a fluent 118, further strengthening the hosts’ grip.
- Rahmat Shah: The Afghan batter’s lone hand of 91 kept his team from being dismissed for an even lower total.
Day 3 Preview:
- Sri Lanka will look to build on their first-innings advantage and declare at a strategic time, leaving enough overs for their bowlers to dismantle the Afghan batting once again.
- Afghanistan needs a monumental effort to avoid a heavy defeat. Their batsmen will need to show more application and resilience against a confident Sri Lankan bowling attack.
- Spin is expected to play a crucial role on Day 3 as the pitch deteriorates. Both teams will be eyeing quick breakthroughs with their spinners.
