Smith, Carey Hundreds Put Australia On Top In Galle
Galle International Stadium: Stand-in captain Steve Smith and wicketkeeper Alex Carey delivered masterful centuries on Day 2 of the second Test at Galle International Stadium, putting Australia in command and inching closer to a series whitewash over Sri Lanka in the Warne–Muralitharan Trophy.
At stumps, the visitors were cruising at 330-3, leading by 73 runs, after an unbroken 239-run stand between Smith (120*) and Carey (139*). Their partnership for the fourth wicket left Sri Lanka gasping in sapping conditions, with the hosts now staring down their first Test series defeat to Australia at home since 2011.
Smith, fresh off a century in the first Test, was at his fluent best, seamlessly countering Sri Lanka’s spinners on a turning track. The right-hander, who added the reverse sweep to his growing array of strokes, played with calculated aggression and pinpoint precision.
