England were 25-1 in their second innings after bowling out Sri Lanka for 196 runs.
LONDON – Gus Atkinson scored a dashing maiden century before England strengthened their grip on the second Test against Sri Lanka at Lord's on Friday.
But Kamindu Mendis, fresh from a fine hundred during Sri Lanka's five-wicket loss in the first Test at Old Trafford, made an admirable 74 to prevent complete humiliation before he was last man out in a total of 196. "Incredible, it was very surreal, I don't think it has sunk in yet," Atkinson told Sky Sports as he reflected on his century
The 26-year-old, whose previous highest first-class score was 91 for Surrey against a Sri Lanka Development XI in 2022, only made his Test debut against the West Indies, also at Lord's, last month. But to the third he was given out lbw, only for Australian umpire Paul Reiffel's decision to be reversed by a review indicating the ball would have missed leg stump.
