a good one too and he goes back
Sri Lanka vs New Zealand, 2nd Test at Kandy, May 03 2003 - Ball by Ball Commentary
The match has ended in a draw as the captains call it off according to the rules. After a short flurry, Sri Lanka decided not to go after the target after losing Jayasuriya The series star was Fleming for New Zealan with Bond showing he is a top class pace bowler and lots of praise on Wiseman who has matured into a fine offie on this tour For Sri Lanka Jaysuriya and skipper Tillakaratne shone with the bat.
This was a good test series and next will change into the Bank AlFalah Cup in a triangular ODI series with Pakistan joining in
The first game will be between the hosts and Pakistan starting at 04:00GMT at Dambulla Perhaps more aggressive captaincy may have brought a result in the test series but one must admit that rain did cause problems to shorten the tests
The Trophy will be shared
Match State: Stumps - Day 5
We are waiting to see the ceremony and bring you details Fleming says we tried hard this morning, did not have the skill to
do better but we did our best Praises Murali and his side for giving it a crack and to Vettori too Is happy with Vettori's fitness now, looks forward to the one- dayers SL Skipper Tillakaratne says he is quite happy with the performance and when Jaysuriya was gone we shut up the shop Thanks everyone and calls Murali a class act The Trophy is held up by both skippers Thats all from Wisden CricInfo for this test series, please join us on the 10th May 04:00GMT for the ODI tournament that also features Pakistan, good evening all
