England tore into Sri Lanka's batting on the fourth morning ofthe second Test at the SSC - finally dismissing home captain MahelaJayawardene for 195.
Having taken just two wickets in the previous four sessions,Michael Vaughan's team enjoyed a relative bounty before lunch as SriLanka were restricted to 439 for seven.
Jayawardene became the middle victim of three when he toe-ended aslog-sweep at left-arm spinner Monty Panesar, which spiralled theball high to Paul Collingwood at slip.
Jayawardene yesterday surpassed Graham Gooch's record for thenumber of Test runs at one venue - a tally of 2015 at Lord's - whenhe turned his eighth hundred at this ground into a 150-pluscontribution.
