Sri Lanka Eyes Victory as They Need 125 Runs to Win
On Day 3 of the third Test at The Oval, Sri Lanka is well-positioned to chase down a target of 219 runs. After dismissing England for 325 and 156, Sri Lanka posted scores of 263 and 94/1. With Pathum Nissanka unbeaten on 53 and Kusal Mendis 30 not out, Sri Lanka needs 125 more runs for victory.
England's second innings saw Jamie Smith's aggressive 67 off 50 balls, but Lahiru Kumara (4-21) and Vishwa Fernando (3-40) restricted them significantly. Earlier, Sri Lanka's bowlers capitalized on favorable conditions to skittle England for 156. The match will resume with Sri Lanka in a strong position to secure a win on Day 4.
