GALLE, Sri Lanka: Rangana Herath became the first Sri Lankan spinner to bowl a hat-trick in Test cricket to put Australia in deep trouble in their match in Galle on Friday.
The left-arm bowler dismissed Adam Voges, Peter Nevill and Mitchell Starc off consecutive deliveries as the visitors struggled to match Sri Lanka´s first innings score of 281 in the second Test.
Starc´s dismissal left the visitors teetering at 80 for seven in the morning session of the second day´s play.
Herath, 38, is only the second Sri Lankan to take a Test hat-trick after former fast bowler Nuwan Zoysa, who managed the feat with his first three balls in a match against Zimbabwe in 1999.
