Spin eh? NZ are 1/192 after 86 overs of the first Test against Sri Lanka.

Fleming is 101 and Richardson, 85.

I must mention young paceman Nissanka who bowled 11 overs which included 7 maidens and he took the only wicket. He conceded 10 runs.

At stumps, NZ are 2/207 with Fleming 0n 112. Richardson fell to Vaas for 85.

Third double ton in 8 days !

New Zealand's captain, Stephen Fleming, must be eyeing off Martin Crowe's 299 as he continues on his epic innings. He's 268 and NZ are 5/486.

Scott Styris made 63 and Jacob Oram, 33.

Well, looks like Fleming traded off his chance for a triple ton for the chance of a SL wicket. It worked.

In the very first over, Tuffey struck !! Atapattu out for a duck. SL 1/4 at stumps.

Well played Stephen Fleming. Gutsy decision.

Shane Bond removed the nightwatchman, Vaas, quickly, to have SL on 2/11 but Jayasuriya (20) and Sangakkara (25) have since added 40 runs.

The Sangakkara/Jayasuriya partnership has reached 103.

Jaya is 50 and Sangakkara is 55.

SL are 4/234 with Jayawardene on 54 and Tillarkaratne, 46. They just brought up their 100 partnership.
