India captain Gill hails long-term prospect Suthar
India secured a commanding 165-run victory in their first Test against Sri Lanka at the Galle International Stadium, with just his second Test player Manav Suthar turning out to be the hero of the match. The 23-year-old left-arm orthodox spinner made his Test debut in June and impressed with a six-wicket haul in Sri Lanka's second innings.
In the match-winning performance, Suthar claimed 6-55, contributing significantly to India's impressive 10-101 match haul. This victory gave India a 1-0 lead in the two-match series and 12 crucial World Test Championship points.
