Angelo Mathews ,a Srilankan Cricketer is famous for his fighting spirit for survival&
win.the In the Second test match between Srilanka& Newzealand on the final day Srilankans were in a desperate situation .they needed 256 runs from 3 sessions
With 5 of their top batsmen back in Pavilion.
Angelo Mathews, once again rose to the occasion&showed his instinct working & put them
Into practice despite witnessing his partners falling one by one.He played 2 complet
sessions& half an hour more on the fibmnal session.
Eventually he fell due to lack of concentration allowing Newzealand a hard-fought
Match.The body language of the New Zealanders indicated their relief on their faces.
They won the match by 167 runs.
Mathews during the course of presence at the crease reduced the huge target of 256 runs
to a manageable 168or at least for a probability of making it into a Tame draw.
His personal contribution was 84.At least he deserved a ton.But fate of Srilankans
thought differently.
