The 2nd match was a disaster for the New Zealand team. Sri Lanka made 602 runs and in response the New Zealand team were all out under 100 runs. This was a pathetic performance by them. Now they are trailing by about 250 runs and left with only four wickets. It is just a matter of time before New Zealand will lose these wickets and lose the test match.
Although Glenn Phillips is batting on 68 and is looking good at the moment but alone he cannot save the team New Zealand. We are on the fourth day of this test match, so the time left in this test also favors the Sri Lanka team. What a performance by them against a strong New Zealand team.
Amazingly, Sri Lanka has won back to back two test matches against Sri Lanka very good players team. Sri Lanka scored so high score in the fist innings that New Zealand can’t chase in both of the innings. Sri Lanka home ground was lucky for them, they won on their home grass. Kamindu Mendis made 182 runs that allow his team to win the game and due to his performance, was named as the player of the match. After seeing the first innings of New Zealand team no one can even say New Zealand would chase this high target. What a win by Sri Lanka.
