The allrounder looks back at Sri Lanka's memorable Test series win in England ten years ago

21-Aug-2024•Interview by Andrew Fidel Fernando

And on the third day, Test cricket rose again

Sri Lanka have been so poor, they might have mistaken for harbingers of Test cricket's doom. But the maligned sport just keeps grinding along

Stats gems you couldn't unearth even if you made them up

We bring you super numbers from England and the Caribbean, and two that feature Alok Kapali

The rise of Mathews and Eranga

Sri Lanka's marks out of ten, for the Test series against England

25-Jun-2014•Andrew Fidel Fernando at Headingley

Batting offers promise but captain concerns

A new-look England side came within one wicket of winning at Lord's and two balls of salvaging a drawn series at Headingley, but while there were promising signs there also remain significant worries

25-Jun-2014•George Dobell

A spellbinding micro-series culminating in a marvellous pile-on

Did England underestimate Sri Lanka's pace attack, or did the Sri Lankans bowl out of their skins?

25-Jun-2014•Andy Zaltzman

Root provides Sri Lanka spark

As Sri Lanka sought a famous victory, Joe Root's words to Angelo Mathews were a pin prick that triggered an explosion

24-Jun-2014•Andrew Fidel Fernando at Headingley

Moeen shines amid rubble

It should not obscure the failures that led to England's defeat but Moeen Ali showed his talent and his temperament with a wonderful maiden Test century

24-Jun-2014•George Dobell at Headingley

Rare away success for Sri Lanka

Stats highlights after the end of the fifth day's play between Sri Lanka and England at Headingley

24-Jun-2014•Bishen Jeswant

Mathews unlocks another dimension

Angelo Mathews' innings may have defined the Test match but it also has potential to define his career

23-Jun-2014•Andrew Fidel Fernando at Headingley

New England, same mistakes

With Alastair Cook isolated and the deficiencies in his captaincy laid bare, the suggestion that English cricket is at a low point continues to gain credence

23-Jun-2014•George Dobell at Headingley

Captaincy no burden for Mathews

Angelo Mathews' flourishing batting during his stint as Sri Lanka Test captain features in the stats highlights from the fourth day at Headingley

23-Jun-2014•Bishen Jeswant

Sangakkara finally leaves his hallmark on England

Having averaged only 30 in England before this tour, Kumar Sangakkara has finally restored his record

22-Jun-2014•Andrew Fidel Fernando at Headingley

Moeen proves his worth - and unveils the doosra

A plethora of "experts" who have spent the last few weeks repeating the myth that Moeen is a "part-time" spin bowler may now afford him a little more respect

22-Jun-2014•George Dobell at Headingley

Old-school Robson plays it perfectly

As the home side stumbled in the final session the value of Sam Robson's maiden Test hundred, a model in concentration and self-denial, became clear

21-Jun-2014•George Dobell at Headingley

Eranga leads Sri Lanka's survivors

For much of the second day Sri Lanka toiled without reward and the Test match was slipping away from them, but they refused to yield and their hard-working seamers have ensured they retain hope

21-Jun-2014•Andrew Fidel Fernando at Headingley

Robson does it the English way

Nothing about Sam Robon's batting against seam bowling even hints at coming from Australia at all. His pointy back elbow makes him look like an accountant from Somerset

21-Jun-2014•Jarrod Kimber at Headingley

Slapstick Sri Lanka give it away

There were a few occasions on the opening day at Headingley when Sri Lanka could be satisfied with their effort, but a succession of loose shots eventually proved costly and it could be a long road back

20-Jun-2014•Andrew Fidel Fernando at Headingley

England's potent attack overcomes errors

England made life harder for themselves than it should have been on the opening day, but their pace attack - and those vying for selection - are offering the suggestion of a strong pack

20-Jun-2014•George Dobell at Headingley

Plunkett finds the shock factor

Liam Plunkett flogged himself into the ground at Lord's and did not have much reward to show for it, but on (new) home turf the ball was fuller and so was his wicket tally
