1st Test, Day 4: Angelo Mathews Ton Inspires Sri Lanka, New Zealand Chase Falters
A classy century from Angelo Mathews and the early wicket of Devon Conway kept Sri Lanka's World Championship hopes alive in the first Test against New Zealand on Sunday. "We've given ourselves a great chance to win the Test match," Mathews said after his masterful 115, made from nearly six hours in the middle in Christchurch. His innings rescued Sri Lanka from a tight spot and led the tourists to a second innings total of 302. That set New Zealand a target of 285, and the home side were 28 for one by stumps after 17 overs, with Conway out for five.
