Right then, that is it from the intriguing first Test between these sides. Sri Lanka has secured a 1-0 lead in this Two Test series. The second test between these sides will be played on Thursday, the 26th of September. The game will begin at 4.30 am GMT. But as you all know, our build up begins much sooner so do join us for the same. Until then, take care, and cheers!
Dhananjaya de Silva, the skipper of Sri Lanka, says that win in England boosts their morale and the boys are delivering. States the stand between Chandimal and Karunaratne helped them a lot and it was one of the key factors of their win. Admits they need to improve and get more runs from the lower order. Says he enjoys captaining, he wasn’t going to bowl but he feels he has the ability to take wickets.
Tim Southee, the skipper of New Zealand, says that it was a good game, it’s a tough place to come but he’s happy for the way they fought. Credits the way William bowled and pips he’s got a great future. Adds they lost the last five wickets for not a lot in the first innings and that’s probably what cost them.
Prabath Jayasuriya is the Player of the Match. He says that he just does his best and sticks to the basics. Mentions he loves it here. Ends by saying that he just focuses on hitting the right lines and lengths.
Stay tuned for the Presentations...
In the final chase of 275, the New Zealand team demonstrated moments of resilience with several partnerships, though ultimately, their key batters were unable to score big. Ravindra showcased a commendable performance, but he lacked consistent support from his teammates. He was ultimately dismissed on 92. On the bowling front, Jayasuriya and Ramesh stood out, combining to claim eight wickets between them, which played a crucial role in securing a convincing victory for their side.
In the third innings, the experienced heads of Dinesh Chandimal and Angelo Mathews, demonstrated their experience and skill, contributing significantly to setting a competitive target of 275 runs for the visiting team. Although the hosts were in a strong position to extend their lead beyond the 300-run mark, the opposition bowler, Patel, displayed exceptional form, effectively dismantling both the lower and middle order of the Sri Lankan batting lineup. He picked up 6 wickets in the third inning.
In response, the New Zealand top order displayed a strong performance, initially suggesting that they would establish a significant lead. However, the Sri Lankan spinners effectively dismantled the middle and the lower order, resulting in New Zealand taking a very slender lead of 35 runs.
After winning the toss and choosing to bat, Sri Lanka's innings struggled to gain momentum early on, finding themselves in a precarious position at 106/4. However, Kamindu Mendis played a key role with his impressive ton. With valuable contributions from a few others, Mendis' efforts were instrumental in guiding the team past the 300-run mark, ultimately setting a competitive total.
A fine, fine win for the hosts and they have now taken an unassailable lead in this series. They were really made to fight hard for this victory right from the first day. Credit to New Zealand though as they fought till the last day but just missed the line.

Right then, we are all set for the final day of the test match. The sun is shining and it's a perfect day for a game of cricket. The Sri Lankan team is seen in a huddle before they take their respective fielding positions. All eyes are on Rachin Ravindra as he walks in with Ajaz Patel who is yet to get off the mark. Dhananjaya de Silva has the ball in hand and is raring to go. Let's play...
Prabath Jayasuriya is in for a quick chat. He says that as a batting side, they have done well but the job is still to be completed. Adds that with the breeze flowing, they have to face some challenges. He says that they have to put in more effort, and they were a bit tired as well so they did not take the half an hour extra yesterday.
Well now, as the teams head into Day 5, Sri Lanka are favorites to clinch the match, but Ravindra's contribution will be crucial as he will aim to guide the tailenders and secure victory. The outcome is likely to appear in the first session of the final day, with both teams still eyeing a win. Stay tuned as the drama unfolds!
Just to take you through what happened in Day 4's play, 14 wickets fell, primarily to spinners, as Sri Lanka collapsed and were bowled out for 309. They set New Zealand a target of 275 runs. The Kiwi innings began poorly with Devon Conway falling for just 4, followed by Kane Williamson's dismissal for 30 due to a stumping. New Zealand's middle order struggled against the Sri Lankan spinners, and they currently find themselves in a precarious position at 8 wickets down, needing 68 runs to win.
So, all eyes are on Rachin Ravindra, as he is currently batting on 91 and striving for his century, while he is now joined by Ajaz Patel, who has yet to score. Get your snacks ready. It’s looking like a blockbuster!
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the fifth and final day of this Test match, it’s Sri Lanka vs Rachin Ravindra! As you all know what the equation is. The Lankans need just two more scalps to send the Kiwis packing, while Ravindra is standing like a brick wall, needing just 68 runs for his side to get over the line!
... DAY 5, SESSION 1 ...
So, the equation is very clear. Sri Lanka need 2 wickets in their fortress while New Zealand need 68 more runs to win. All eyes will be on Rachin Ravindra once again who will fight for a good sleep today but might sleep peacefully if he successfully gets New Zealand over the line somehow with a small tail alongside him. Join us for the all important first session of Day 5 at 4.30 am GMT but do join us early on for the build-up. Cheers!
New Zealand walked into the final session with four wickets down but there was some good counterattacking cricket played by Tom Blundell and Rachin Ravindra. Prabath Jayasuriya did lead the fightback with the ball as Sri Lanka picked up four more wickets but Ravindra has remained resolute. The boy from New Zealand is playing a man right now. When all the big names have fallen under pressure, New Zealand are looking upon the 24-year old to save them from defeat. He is on 91 but the other 68 runs which New Zealand need are more important right now for Rachin Ravindra.
The umpires are asking Dhananjaya de Silva if he wants to opt for the extra 30 minutes but Dhananjaya de Silva calls for a Day 5 of play. Wow! What an eventful day! Even we were on our heels for that final session. What a day of Test cricket! It truly ebbed and flowed throughout the fourth day of cricketing action that we have witnessed. It was always going to be tough to chase in excess of 200 in the final innings but New Zealand gave it a real go and are still in it with a chance.

Is it straight enough? Dhananjaya de Silva has taken the review. Tossed up full and on middle and leg, slight turn on this one. Patel tries to defend on the front foot but misses on the outside edge and gets hit on the back pad. Looks like might miss the off pole and Ball Tracking shows it does miss the off pole by a mile.

It felt like will miss the stumps but Sri Lanka take it upstairs and gets THREE REDS in return.

Sri Lanka are claiming the catch, they think it hit the boots before lobbing back to Mendis but the umpires want to check it upstairs. Nope, it hits the ground. Tossed up on off, Santner comes down to defend but plays off the inner half and it hits the ground before reaching to Mendis.

Drinks break! This has been an engrossing hour of play after the Tea break but with those two wickets, Sri Lanka are now right on top. Tom Blundell and Rachin Ravindra had done extremely well to knock off a few quick runs from the target after the break but with the ball doing so much off the rough, wickets were bound to fall sooner rather than later. Ravindra is still holding fort and will now have Mitchell Santner for company.

Lovely bit of flight on this one, drifting into off and middle and just turning away with some extra bounce. Glenn Phillips is drawn forward and pushes at it with hard hands only to get an outside edge towards the man at a widish second slip.

OUT! TIMBER! With Tom Blundell opting for the reverse sweep time and again, that dismissal was certainly on and Prabath Jayasuriya has delivered yet again for his side. Tosses this one up on a length and outside leg stump at just 80 clicks. Blundell brings out the reverse again but has to reach for it and doesn't get to the pitch of the ball. The ball hits the rough and turns in to hit middle stump. Sri Lanka back on top as Blundell is dismissed for a well-made 30 (43).

FOUR! A lovely piece of timing there but Dimuth Karunaratne should have done a lot better in the deep. Tossed up around off, Blundell comes down the pitch and whips it away in front of deep midwicket and picks up yet another boundary. Blundell has come out with intent after the break.

FOUR! Wow, not a single fielder moved and that is some shot from Ravindra. Short of a good length and on the fifth stump line, Ravindra stands tall and plays it on the up, the ball pings off the bat and pierces the gap at covers for a third boundary in the over. New Zealand now require 145 more runs.

We are back for the final session on Day 4 and the game could be made or broken for either side in the next couple of hours or so. The umpires are back out in the middle and so are the Sri Lankan players. Rachin Ravindra and Tom Blundell are all set to resume their stay at the crease as well. It will be Lahiru Kumara to begin proceedings after the break with the ball.
... DAY 4, SESSION 3 ...
Sri Lanka commenced the day in a commanding position, however, the momentum shifted in the early session. But in this session, they successfully claimed three huge wickets of Tom Latham, Kane Williamson, and Daryl Mitchell. They will need to capitalize on this momentum by securing quick wickets at the beginning of the next session. The question now is whether they can maintain this pressure. Or will the visitors dominate the final session? The answer will become clear shortly after the Tea Break in a few minutes time. An intriguing final session awaits...
So, after the end of the second session, the match remains finely balanced, with both teams likely to be happy with their performances thus far. New Zealand now requires 161 runs with 6 wickets remaining in their innings. Although they had been in a strong position, the dismissal of Daryl Mitchell in the end have balanced the game. Tom Blundell and Rachin Ravindra will look to bat as much as they can and get the game totally under control.

धनंजय डी सिल्वा To टॉम लाथम OUT!
OUT! That is stone dead! Absolutely plumb and Dhananjaya de Silva strikes! It is not the one which turns that gets you but it is the one which goes on with the arm that does! That's exactly the case here. We saw a little bit of turn on the previous ball but it was played nicely by Latham but this time, it goes on with the arm and Latham misses it. It lands around off and skids through. Latham ends up defending outside the line. He misses and it hits the pad. He discusses with his partner but does not review. Rightly so as that was as plumb as it comes. Really good wicket as Latham was well set.

Update 7.33 am GMT - Good news! It was just a passing shower and the rain has gone now. The play starts soon.
While we wait for the play to resume, let us take you through what happened at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. India have secured a victory over Bangladesh by 280 runs, taking a 1-0 lead in the two-match series. India has solidified their dominance in the Test matches played on home soil. They have maintained an unbeaten streak in home Test series since 2012, and this win adds to that impressive record.
Update 7.19 am GMT - It has got a bit dark here at Galle International Stadium. It has started to rain and the groundsmen are quick to get the covers on. Let's hope it goes away soon. Stay tuned for regular updates...

Sri Lanka though had a few overs to bowl just before Lunch and they have managed to get the important wicket of Devon Conway. The wicket is now really tough to bat on and Sri Lanka would hope their spinners could do what Ajaz Patel did to them earlier. New Zealand on the other hand, need a big stand from the two batting. They are probably the Kiwis’ best players of spin and they really need to dig in. The Kiwis now need 262 runs more to win, with 9 wickets in their kitty. The game could go either way, to be honest. An important session awaits...
Sri Lanka will be pretty pleased with the wicket they have got in the few overs they had to bowl before Lunch. After losing their last 6 wickets for not a lot, Sri Lanka let the momentum they had, slip away. They were once in a position of getting a lead of over 300 but they failed to reach that mark too. A dramatic turn at the start of Day 4 saw their side collapse for just 309 runs which could have been much more higher.

Flighted up, outside off, Tom Latham looks to block it but misses. The keeper fails to collect it as the ball rolls towards short fine. They cross. The replay later shows that there was an edge. A difficult chance though. That will be LUNCH on Day 4.
