News Reporter: Next in sports Sri Lanka won the second ODI match at Colombo to take their lead to two wins after they won over South Africa for two wickets. The Sri Lankans who won the toss selected to field first. South Africa made 322 towards the end of their innings. Sri Lanka responded back by making the target in just 38 overs. Sanath Jayasuriya who made 148 in the match was named the man of the match. The next match is the only Test Match of the tour which is to take place at Galle. In football ?

P.S. I wont be able to finish the tour quickly as my school starts tommorow. But I will try to play when I get time.

Welcome to Galle for the Test Match between South Africa and Sri Lanka. It is a very hot and humid day with the sky hidden behind the clouds. Now onto the toss. Smith has won the toss and elected to bat first. The line ups for both the teams seems to be changed. For South Africa Kirsten, McKenzie and Adams have come onto the squad. And for Sri Lanka Arnols and Sangakkara have come in. It seems to be promising enough.

And gold here in Dubai Thursday and Frisay are holidays instead of Sat and Sunday. And since tofay is 1st i had a holiday. So school starts today.
