Dilshan gave a superb all-round performance to power
Sri Lanka to a record 465-run victory over Bangladesh
in the second and final Test here on Tuesday.
It was the fifth-largest win by runs in the history
of the game. It was also Sri Lanka’s biggest victory
in 182 Tests and Bangladesh’s worst defeat in 59
matches since gaining Test status in 2000.
Dilshan scored an impressive 143 -- his second century
of the match -- as the visitors set an improbable 624-run
target for the hosts.
Bangladesh was bundled out for 158 in their second innings
on the penultimate day to lose the series 2-0.
