Match Notes

  • Injured Prasad ruled out of first Test

    With the first Test less than a week away, Sri Lanka coach Graham Ford was satisfied with what he saw on the final day of his side's last warm-up match

  • Burgess 98 makes SL bowlers toil

    Sri Lanka's bowlers were given another testing workout ahead of the Test series, as Michael Burgess, on first-class debut for Leicestershire, fell two short of what would have been an elegant maiden century

  • Mendis, Shanaka provide SL substance

    Kusal Mendis made another good impression at No. 3 before Dasun Shanaka's unbeaten 91 helped Sri Lanka recover from 192 for 8 against Leicestershire
