color: #000000;\">From a\u00a0 position of what seemed like a no result, the tide changed sensationally as the Sri Lankans showed vigorous intent to push for a famous victory and instill new belief that they have turned the corner in terms of orchestrating a fightback and strategy to win games that seemed on a chartered course.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">After folding tamely in the first Test, Ireland&#8217;s batters found form to post a massive 492, their highest total since receiving Test status.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">They threw down the gauntlet, and Sri Lanka accepted,\u00a0 making the babe&#8217;s of world cricket realize it is a bigger picture than looking imposing, There&#8217;s a follow through that needs to be implemented.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Riding on that high, their new found confidence soon dissipated when Sri Lanka&#8217;s batters,\u00a0 stung by the Irish challenge, ventured on a run spree smashing their way to 704 for 3 with two double centuries and two centuries making it the highest number of tons which Includes two from the Irish at this venue, usually associated with low scoring.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-113084 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Sri-Lanka-vs-Ireland-2023-e1682872763217.png\" alt=\"Sri Lanka vs Ireland 2023\" width=\"600\" height=\"291\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;

color: #000000;\">Kusal Mendis then joined Nishan Madushka and to start a run orgy that realized 268 runs in quick time as they steered the game dramatically in Sri Lanka&#8217;s favour.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Mendis was ruthless in his assault on the Irish attack smacking 245 off 291 balls with 11 sixers and 18 fours while Madushka notched his maiden double ton off 339 balls with a six and 22 fours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;

color: #000000;\">A well calculated declaration then set the stage for Sri Lanka&#8217;s bowlers who grabbed 2 wickets by the close of the first day with Ireland still 198 in arrears and staring at defeat unless the could bat out the last day on a deteriorating wicket which is the norm in Galle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-113083 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Sri-Lanka-vs-Ireland-2023-6-e1682872743138.png\" alt=\"Sri Lanka vs Ireland 2023\" width=\"600\" height=\"448\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;
