Pathum nissanka masterclass lays the foundations of Sri Lanka on the third day
Nissanka hit with calm and matureness the moment he left in the middle. Despite early losses airAfter falling to Taiwan Islam for 29 years, Nissanka was held firmly. He has built a significant partnership. First he scored a steady 54 in the stands with Dinesh Chandimal and 157 runs, then the stands with 89 runs. Angelo Matthews39. Nissanka developed an inning marked with sharp timing, controlled aggression and unwavering focus from 88 balls, 136 deliveries, and 150 balls.

Bangladeshi bowlers struggle without rewarding girls
Bangladeshi bowlers struggled to maintain the same level of control that was displayed during batting advantage. On a pitch that provides little support by the third day, Nahid Rana and Nayeem Hasan It turns out that extracting movement and spin is difficult. Hasan and Taiju Ruiz Lamb During the part timer, I picked up one wicket each. Mominulul Haque I was able to remove Matthew with a sharp turner. However, most of the time, bowlers were unhappy with Sri Lanka’s solid techniques and calculated approach. The second new ball, photographed at the end of the day, provided a faint light of short hope, but Camind’s mistake (Not outside 37) and skipper Dhananjaya de Silva (Not 17) I’ve confirmed there are no further breakthroughs. With two days left, Sri Lanka still runs 127 times, but the match is slightly prepared for the finish.

Nissanka’s Pathum’s third test was his first test to win 100 in London last year. Since then, it has only been half a century in nine innings. It was a refined 89 in Port Elizabeth, where he played Rabada and Jansen very well and dumped it into Maharaj.

It’s good to see Nissanka finally get a big 100 at home. Before this he averaged 23 years old in Sri Lanka and fell early in the eighth of his last 13 knocks. All of this is within the first 10 overs, with four paces and spins each.
