The match has ended in a draw as the captains call it off according
to the rules
After a short flurry, Sri Lanka decided not to go after the target
after losing Jayasuriya
The series star was Fleming for New Zealan with Bond showing he is
a top class pace bowler and lots of praise on Wiseman who has
matured into a fine offie on this tour
For Sri Lanka Jaysuriya and skipper Tillakaratne shone with the bat
THis was a good test series and next will change into the Bank
AlFalah Cup in a triangular ODI series with Pakistan joining in
The first game will be between the hosts and Pakistan starting at
04:00GMT at Dambulla
Perhaps more aggressive captaincy may have brought a result in the
test series but one must admit that rain did cause problems to
shorten the tests
The Trophy will be shared

Match State: Stumps - Day 5

We are waiting to see the ceremony and bring you details
Fleming says we tried hard this morning, did not have the skill to
do better but we did our best

Praises Murali and his side for giving it a crack and to Vettori
too
Is happy with Vettori's fitness now, looks forward to the one-
dayers
SL Skipper Tillakaratne says he is quite happy with the performance
and when Jaysuriya was gone we shut up the shop
Thanks everyone and calls Murali a class act
The Trophy is heldup by both skippers
Thats all from Wisden CricInfo for this test series, please join us
on the 5th ay 04:00GMT for the ODI tournament that also features
Pakistan, good evening all
