Sangakkara reaches his 20th ODI century



Kumar Sangakkara completed his 20th one-day international century to lead Sri Lanka to a healthy 292-7 in their sixth match being played against England in Pallekele.

 

The evergreen Sangakkara blazed 112 off as many balls, highlighted by 12 boundaries and two sixes, and the 37-year-old put on 153 with Tillakaratne Dilshan for the second wicket.

 

Dilshan made a patient 68 before Dinesh Chandimal pushed the total towards 300 with a brisk 35 in the final overs.
