'Smart cricketer' Dinusha helps Sri Lanka draw second India Test
Colombo: Sri Lanka staged an impressive comeback to draw the second Test against India with the help of an unbeaten 133 from Sonal Dinusha. The left-handed batsman, who had previously scored a century in each innings of the match, became only the eighth Sri Lankan to achieve this feat. India, who had won the opening Test and the series 1-0, acknowledged a brilliant game saying "Test cricket won today."
Dinusha, who has now scored three match-saving hundreds in Test cricket, was named player of the match. The match-saving innings was the third in Test cricket for Dinusha and also his career-best score.
