Sri Lanka wrap up opening Test against New Zealand, rise to third in WTC table
The Daily Guardian|September 24, 2024
The series opener started with Sri Lanka opting to bat after winning the toss. Kamindu Mendis starred for the hosts with his sensational knock of 114. His heroics with the bat propelled Sri Lanka to 305.

Sri Lanka showed progress in the World Test Championship Standings after wrapping up a 63-run victory over the inaugural WTC champions, New Zealand, in the opening Test in Galle on Monday.

Sri Lanka didn't need much time to wrap up the game on the final day of the first Test. With two wickets away from victory, lead spinner Prabath Jayasuriya weaved his magic, picked two wickets, and sent the hosts to the third spot in the WTC table.

With India and Australia ahead of them, Sri Lanka now have the best chance of challenging the 2023 World Test Championship finalists for a spot in the 2025 final at the Lord's.
