Sri Lanka was bowled out for 174 in the first innings of the second test at the Pallekele International Stadium a short while ago.

Having elected to bat first after winning the toss Sri Lanka were 76 for 5 at lunch, but could not capitalise on favourable batting conditions as they lost wickets at regular intervals, to be shot out for 174.

Angelo Mathews top scored for 58, with Kumar Sangakkara falling two runs short of his half-century. Ryan Harris took 3 for 38 with Trent Copeland, Mitchell Johnson and Nathan Lyon picking up two wickets each.
