______________________________________________________________________________


Border has described the wicket as much more difficult to bat on than the first
test wicket, and this seems to be evident by the number of catches taken at
short leg - Jayasuriya has taken 3, and Damien Martyn substituting for Boon has
taken 2.

Dodemaide took a wicket with his first ball in this match and it was his first
since the Second Test against the West Indies at Perth, way back in December
1988.

De Silva calmed his agression in his innings of 85, eager to make up for 
wasting his wicket in the second innings of the First Test when he charged down
the wicket to McDermott. His 50 took 114 deliveries and included 7 boundaries.

Sri Lanka crashed from 3/211 to be 9/258 at stumps thanks mainly to a spell of
4/11 from Craig McDermott.

Border plans to get the final wicket early on the fourth day, and aims to be
around 250 ahead going into the fifth. He is looking at a minimum of 60 overs
to bowl the Sri Lankans out on the final day.
