Jayawardene powers
Sri Lanka to series win
Dambulla—The morning may have belonged to the
Akmal brothers and Pakistan, but it was all Sri
Lanka in the afternoon, with an imperious
century from Mahela Jayawardene central to a
commanding six-wicket victory which clinched the
series with two games to spare. The pursuit of
289 was made to look like child’s play as
Jayawardene and Upul Tharanga put on 202 for the
first wicket, and not even a brief wobble
thereafter could stop Sri Lanka’s inexorable
progress. Jayawardene’s 123, his first hundred
since 2007, took only 108 balls, and even cramps
failed to curtail the boundary barrage as the
bowlers were treated with disdain. |
