Rathnayake ton leads dominant Sri Lanka A batting display
The Island
|July 22, 2025
Australia A's batters faced a searching test to save their two-game series against Sri Lanka A in Darwin after the visitors built a formidable first innings total, thanks mostly to a century from Pavan Rathnayake.
-
Resuming on day two of the second four-day match at 263 for 4, Sri Lanka A fully punished rival captain Jason Sangha's decision to send them in, powering on to make 486 for 6 declared.
In reply, the hosts were 76 for 1 at stumps at the Marrara Cricket Ground on Monday, with Jake Weatherald on 45 and Kurtis Patterson 19, and with a mountain still to climb to win the series after the first match was drawn.
Australia A's former Test opener Nathan McSweeney couldn't replicate his fine 94 from the first match, falling for 12 when bowled between bat and pad by offspinner Nishan Peiris.
