(Reuters) - Oshada Fernando fell agonisingly short of a test century but his 91 runs helped Sri Lanka fight their way back and finish the third day of the first test against the West Indies on 255-4 in their second innings.
Fernando and Lahiru Thirimanne put together a 162-run second-wicket partnership that wiped out the home team’s 102-run first-innings lead after West Indies had been dismissed for 271 in their first innings early on Tuesday.
