7.2Kamawal to F Karunaratne4
Four runs. FOUR! Qais Ahmad to Dimuth Karunaratne. Leg spinner full toss, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, well timed in the air under control past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. Sri Lanka chased down this paltry target with ease to seal victory in this one-off test. Afghanistan fought hard after being bundled out for 198 on the first day. Big runs for Angelo Mathews and Dinesh Chandimal put the game out of reach for Afghanistan. A fine century by Ibrahim Zadran extended proceedings but Afghanistan had no answer to the craft and guile of Prabath Jayasuriya who finished with eight wickets in the match and takes home the player of the match award. Attention now turns to the ODI series starting on Friday.
