SLC – Dhananjaya de Silva swings it Sri Lanka’s way, a masterly unbeaten 153 in 328/8

To revel when the chips are down in typical test match cricket on a crucial fourth day when the opposition is up with their tails is truly remarkable copybook stuff that saw the gung ho of Dhananjaya de Silva descend to Sri Lanka’s cause in a truly priceless three figure redeeming knock unbeaten on 153 off 259 balls as the hosts ended the day from a gloomy 73 for 3 to a match winning 328 for 8 to lead by 279 runs on an uncertain spin friendly fourth day track of the second test against the West Indies at the Galle International Stadium on Thursday.
