New look Sri Lanka in historic series win over South Africa – BY TREVINE RODRIGO IN MELBOURNE One Kusal spelt trouble for South Africa in the first Test but two Kusal’s spelt double trouble as Sri Lanka stunned the hosts and the rest of the cricketing world to pull off a sensational series victory in Port Elizabeth against all odds. After Kusal Janith Perera led the heroics by snatching victory from the jaws of certain defeat in Kingsmead, Durban, Kusal Mendis and debutant Oshada Fernando made a mockery of what appeared to be a batsmen’s nightmare track in Port Elizabeth to effortlessly guide Sri Lanka to a historic 2-0 series triumph in front of a shocked South African following and followers worldwide who reflected on their dismal performances in New Zealand and Australia, then in wonderment at the miraculous form reversal. All the doomsayers who condemned this team for lack ...

Sri Lanka invent cricket’s new “Domino effect” Clueless and unprepared team succumb to relentless Aussie pace – By TREVINE RODRIGO IN MELBOURNE Sri Lanka’s visit to Australia after quite a spell delivered the worst ever performance in Test cricket since they were given Test status in 1982 as they meekly succumbed to an unforgettable demolition job performed on them that will remain in their memory for several decades. Their embarrassing performance after India toweled the Australians at home underlined the gulf between the best and the rest as the fifth placed Aussies made their one rung lower opponent feel that they belonged in the dungeons of the world game. The pathetic batting display by a weak-kneed outfit bereft of proper technique and urgently needing a psychological assessment about what courage and commitment means sent shockwaves through their supporters who were in disbelief at what an ordinary show they could ...
Lakmal the shining light as Sri Lanka bats falter – BY TREVINE RODRIGO IN MELBOURNE Going into a Test with pre-conceived nightmares of a bouncer barrage from the Australian quicks, Sri Lanka’s mindset destroyed their ability to make the first Test a contest as they let themselves be bundled out for an under par 144 and gave the home side the initiative at the Gabba on day one. By the end of day two, the Australian batsmen demonstrated what patience and application can deliver as they meticulously built up a commanding 179 run lead throwing down the gauntlet to the visitors to show some guts and determination or perish within three or four days in what is turning out to be a predictably lopsided contest. Suranga Lakmal Photo Source: espn cricinfo (photo source: Stuff.co.nz ) Just two players stood out for Sri Lanka in their disappointing show and ...
DIMUTH KARUNARATNE NAMED IN ICC TEST TEAM OF THE YEAR – BY TREVINE RODRIGO IN MELBOURNE Stylish Sri Lanka Opening batsman Dimuth Karunaratne capped off a great year with the bat to be named in the ICC Test team of the year, 2018, the only Lankan to gain recognition for consistent performances. Karunaratne is currently ranked sixth in the ICC world batting rankings after sterling performances with the bat particularly in the home series against South Africa where he once outscored the entire South African score in a winning Sri Lanka effort. The talented Sri Lankan opener was named alongside New Zealander Tom Latham to open the innings in a star-studded lineup led by India’s dynamic skipper Virat Kholi. Karunaratne has shown the makings of a solid option to a Sri Lanka outfit struggling for consistency and needs a player of similar temperament to solidify the opening slot in the ...
Sri Lanka face uphill task against smarting Aussies – BY TREVINE RODRIGO IN MELBOURNE Sri Lanka’s mission to the Southern hemisphere appears to be on a tragic course if the results in New Zealand are any indication. They left empty handed after a winless tour in all formats and life for them appears bleaker as they take on an Australian team smarting from a historic whitewash at home at the hands of the high riding Indians. While Sri Lanka’s aspirations are more in hope of improvement due to the immaturity in the current squad, the Kiwis and Aussies are proud defenders at home and are uncompromising against all-comers in battle. The Sri Lankans feature in their first Pink ball Test at the Gabba in Brisbane on February 24 before travelling to Manuka Oval in Canberra for their final encounter which is incidentally the first Test in the Australian ...
