Re: Cross Bat - ketchim - 07-16-2017
With a 10 run lead, Zimbabwe found themselves 23 for 4, then 59 for 5.
But for the remainder of the day, the middle order would rally around an
adventurous Sikandar Raza, and turn the match in dramatic fashion.
Having played definitive hands in Zimbabwe's ODI series, Raza stood on the verge
of a vital maiden Test ton, finishing the day on 97 off 158 balls !

Before Raza came to the crease, Herath had knocked out Zimbabwe's top three
in his first four overs.
By lunch, Sri Lanka had had them by the collar, at 23 for 4

Herath to Sikandar, wrong shot selection ! down for a reverse sweep but this is a slider, loops up on middle and leg and refuses to turn.

Overall, Cremer's effort ranks seventh in the list of best match figures
by a Zimbabwe bowler in Tests.
