Aravinda De Silva, considered to be the prince of sri lankan cricket shows his class to the english cricket fans on Sri Lanka's tour of england 1998. Sri Lanka upto that point was rarely invited to play test circket in england and were only given 1 test match. The sri lankan destroyed england with their batting and bowling.

The most prolific pair in Test Cricket | Sangakkara - Jayawardene
Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene celebrated their 50th stand together with a mammoth third-wicket partnership of 311, which is, quite amazingly, less than half their highest stand - an unforgettable 624 against South Africa at the SSC Stadium in Colombo last year. The 311 they added is also the second-highest partnership at Kandy, after the 335 that Marvan Atapattu and Sanath Jayasuriya added against Pakistan in 2000. Among all the pair who have played at least 50 times together, Sangakkara and Jayawardene have now become the most prolific in terms of averages, edging past the Australian pair of Matthew Hayden and Ricky Ponting (which means that the Australia-Sri Lanka series later this year will be a battle of, among other things, the two best batting pairs in the game). http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/301893.html
