August-22, Cricket History

**1992** At Colombo's, Sri Lanka needed only 54 to win with eight wickets left. Offspinner Greg Matthews and fast bowler Craig McDermott took the next five wickets and brought the game to a head with Sri Lanka needing 31 more. Then a hitherto underachieving legspinner, Shane Warne, took the last three without conceding a run and sealed a 16-run win for Australia. This after Sri Lanka had taken a first-innings lead of 291, with Romesh Kaluwitharana flaying 132 not out on his debut. The remaining two Tests were drawn. Thank you for reading.
