#2 Kusal Mendis' superb century

The track was weary, the attack was potent, the target was 452 and Sri Lanka had been shot out for 185 in their first innings.
The task was always going to be tough, but young Kusal Mendis was never ruffled as he kept his head down and grafted out an innings of substance and notched up his century which was a fighting effort.
He started in an iffy manner after having nicked two balls but then settled down on a pitch which was never even and played one of his best innings.
However, his dismissal for 102 effectively ended the chase for the visitors as they were bundled out for 226.
