<p>On the other hand, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/ind-vs-sl-2nd-test-sonal-dinusha-speaks-about-stunning-century-against-team-india-23647058" rel="nofollow"><strong>Sri Lanka's Sonal Dinusha</strong></a> scored an unbeaten knock of 133 runs off 264 deliveries. His knock was laced with eight boundaries and two maximums.</p>
<p>With this, he joined an elite list of cricketers who have scored three tons in two-match Test series. He is also the third Sri Lankan batsman to have achieved this feat.</p>
<p>The cricketers who have scored three centuries in two-match Test series are Sri Lanka's Aravinda de Silva, South Africa's Jacques Kallis and Hashim Amla, Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara, Pakistan's Younis Khan, Australia's Marnus Labuschagne and New Zealand's Kane Williamson.</p>
<p>Overall, Dinusha became the 12th batter to score hundreds in both innings of a Test against India. He is only the second batter since January 2015 to achieve the milestone against India after <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/england-test-skipper-joe-root-speaks-about-brydon-carse-nightclub-incident-23646736" rel="nofollow"><strong>England</strong></a>'s Jonny Bairstow, who scored 106 and an unbeaten 114 runs at Edgbaston in 2022.</p>
<p>Dinusha was also named the "Player of the match" for his two crucial match-saving centuries in the second Test match against Shubman Gill and his men at the Sinhalese Sports Club Cricket Ground in Colombo.</p>
