Jayasuriya steers Sri Lanka to 63-run win over NZ

Left-arm spinner Prabath Jayasuriya took two overs to polish off the New Zealand tail and complete a five-wicket haul as Sri Lanka sealed a 63-run victory in the opening Test at Galle International Stadium on Monday. Chasing 275 for victory, New Zealand was all out for 211 despite Rachin Ravindra’s gallant 92, its batters unable to negotiate the sharp turn and low bounce at the venue. Jayasuriya (5-68) claimed his eighth five-wicket haul, seven of them coming at his happy hunting ground in Galle alone.
