In a shocking turn of events, Sri Lanka’s very own Jayasuriya took 5 wickets in the 2nd test against Bangladesh, leading his team to a crushing victory by an innings and 78 runs. The match, which was expected to be a close competition, turned into a one-sided affair as Jayasuriya spun his way to victory with his incredible bowling skills.
“I never knew I had it in me to take 5 wickets in a test match,” said Jayasuriya after the game. “I guess all those hours of practicing my spin bowling finally paid off. I’m just glad I could contribute to the team’s success.”
The Bangladeshi team, on the other hand, was left scratching their heads as they struggled to come to terms with their defeat. Captain Mahmudullah was at a loss for words as he tried to explain what went wrong.
“We were completely outplayed by Jayasuriya and the Sri Lankan team,” said Mahmudullah. “I don’t know what happened out there, but we definitely need to regroup and come back stronger in the next match.”
Fans of the Sri Lankan team were overjoyed with the result, with many taking to social media to praise Jayasuriya’s performance. One fan even went as far as to say, “Move over Muralitharan, Jayasuriya is the new spin king in town!”
The victory was especially sweet for Sri Lanka as it marked their first test series win in over a year. Captain Perera was ecstatic with the result and credited Jayasuriya for his outstanding performance.
“Jayasuriya was the star of the show today,” said Perera. “He really stepped up when we needed him the most. I couldn’t be prouder of the team and our victory today.”
With this impressive win under their belt, Sri Lanka now looks ahead to their next test series with renewed confidence. Who knows what other surprises Jayasuriya has up his sleeve? One thing’s for sure, the cricket world will be keeping a close eye on this rising star.
