Twin centuries from the Galle openers set them up for a declaration on the penultimate game of this match which (shock of shocks) looks likely to be a draw. Sangeeth Cooray added to his scire of 58* overnight to finish on 160. The opening stand for Galle was worth 208. It is genuinely impressive that a team can post 444 with 5 players registering single figure scores. Galle declared with 12 overs left in the day which Jaffna navigated for the loss of no wicket.
Over in Pallekele it continues to be a bowlers game. Dambulla have a 364 run deficit going into the final day after Ashian Daniel got a fivefer to get them all out for 216. Kandy are on 134-3 overnight and will look to declare early tomorrow to give them a chance of the win.
