Kusal Mendis
21 y.o.
6th Test
Previous H.S. 53
Currently 125* n.o. off 168 out of 4/174
This could be potentially one of the greatest maiden Test tons of all time.
Batting brilliantly
Great to see a counter attack here bcos after a few hours on Day 1 it appeared this series may have been a whitewash.

Forgot about the test until I saw the score on Facebook, looks like we have a contest

Sri Lanka lead by 196 with 4 wickets left. With the way it's going Sri Lanka (Mendis) are dominating and Australia will have to bat out of their skin to win it.

Reckon the logistics of Zorbs being in the Caribbean have worked against him here....

Zampa's there, isn't he?

We're in real strife here. Going to take a concerted effort from our batsmen. Knuckling down against spin isn't our forte.
