Prabath Jayasuriya Leads Sri Lanka To Thumping Victory Over Bangladesh

By IANS News June 28, 2025 • 12:42 PM View: 199

Sinhalese Sports Club Ground: Prabath Jayasuriya was the star as Sri Lanka stormed to an innings and 78-run victory over Bangladesh in the second Test at the Sinhalese Sports Club Ground in Colombo, wrapping up the match within a half-hour of day four and sealing the series 1-0.

The left-arm spinner was unplayable on a turning track, finishing with 5 for 56 in the second innings as Bangladesh folded meekly for just 133.
