Kusal Mendis’ herculean effort with the bat helped Sri Lanka to survive against the fiery Australia in the second test of the ongoing series. Kusal along with Ramesh Mendis added a crucial 65 runs to put Sri Lanka in a formidable position after the Lankan Lions opted to bat first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from Kusal Mendis, Dinesh Chandimal also scored a brilliant half century while kusal ended his day with 85* helping Sri Lanka to get to 224\/9 at the end of day 1. However Sri Lanka got bowled out for 257 in their first innings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mendis was not harmed due to a collision with an Australian left-arm spinner named Matthew Kuhnemann on Day 1, which took place just after Dinesh Chandimal had been dismissed in the 61st over of the innings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ramesh, who was batting at that stage, played the ball toward mid-on. Kusal tried to take a single but collided with Kuhnemann, who was trying to get the ball. Luckily, both of them were back in action afterward without any serious injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
