Despite not having played a warm-up match, the Kiwis showed resilience by taking a first-innings lead, but Sri Lanka’s experience in home conditions ultimately helped them secure a close victory on the final morning. Sri Lanka, on the other hand, moved up to third place in the World Test Championship standings after their win in the first Test. A win in the second Test could significantly boost their chances of securing a spot in the final at Lord’s next June. (Live Scorecard)
