England vs Sri Lanka, 1st Test Day 3 Highlights: Sri Lanka were 204-6 in their second innings at stumps on the third day of the first Test against England in Manchester. However, the visitors held a lead of 82 runs with just four wickets standing and two days left to play. Sri Lanka were in dire trouble at 1-2 before lunch on Friday after conceding a first-innings deficit of over a hundred runs as Jamie Smith broke a 94-year-old record by becoming the youngest England wicketkeeper to score a Test century. However, Kamindu Mendis (56*) and Angelo Mathews (65) made damage limitation for the visitors.
