    W
    Asitha Fernando to White
    And, that's that! Asitha cleans up White and Sri Lanka win the second Test by an innings and ten runs. Full-length ball tailing into the batter, who gets an inside-edge back onto the stumps. Asitha celebrates, and with that Sri Lanka complete their 100th Test win.
    77.2
    W
    Asitha Fernando to Tector
    Yorker, right on the base of middle stump and Asitha is absolutely pumped up! Tails it in the blockhole, as Tector backs away looking for another wild swing. He misses, the bowler doesn't and his stumps are left in a mess. But, that is one heck of an innings from Tector, who falls for 85.

    Jayasuriya to Humphreys

    Asitha Fernando to Tector
    Going, going, gone! Banged in short on off, and this one sits up for Tector as he goes back and slams the pull over deep midwicket. He gets into the 80s, Ireland breach the 200-mark. The deficit is now just ten.

    Jayasuriya to Tector
    Oh, wow, Tector slips and there was almost a stumping there. Length outside leg. He taps it with soft hands and the ball bounces back onto the turf to the keeper. Tector loses his footing, and has to scramble back in
