Harare: Rangana Herath became just the third bowler to pick up five-wicket hauls against all nine Test opponents to earn Sri Lanka a big first-innings lead before Zimbabwe bounced back on the third day of the third Test here yesterday.
Herath recorded figures of 5 for 89, his first five-wicket haul against the hosts, to bowl them out for 272 and give Sri Lanka a 232-run lead in the first innings.
With opener Dimuth Karunaratne scoring an unbeaten 54, Lanka went to stumps on 102 for four, an overall lead of 334 with two days to play.
