Quality Test cricket unfolding in this match! Sri Lanka were brilliant in the first innings (showed every skill necessary in those conditions - all that cricket should and must always be) In comparison, NZ struggling somewhat in reply, but don't count them out just yet - remember against England??! A great leveller cricket (like no other sport). NZ, from world champions to relative strugglers almost overnight! No real personnel changes to speak of either to point too!
