Sri Lanka U-19 beat England U-19 by 3 wickets in the 1st Youth Test played in England.
Chasing 273 runs in 56 overs Sri Lanka were struggling 98/5 but a brilliant counter attacking hundred from Ranuda Somaratne (120*) put Sri Lanka back on track to a stunning win.
Stunning win at Chelmsford for Sri Lanka. Chasing 273, they were 98 for five but Ranidu Somaratna came up with a superb unbeaten 120 off 115 when chips were down. Special player. Those flicks for boundaries off Ashpinwall gave memories of ADS against Lee at Centurion in 2003. pic.twitter.com/S2G0K13PzC
