Kamindu Mendis averaged 78.9 after his first 5 Tests. Sonal Dinusha is now averaging 86.6 after 5 Tests in his career.

Hope these two can do great things for Sri Lankan cricket in the future. They need a few batting mainstays like their previous great generation had. #SLvIND

[Subhayan Chakraborty @CricSubhayan]

Sonal Dinusha batted for 1139 minutes in the entire series. 722 balls in the entire series. Starboy.

[Sanjay Manjrekar @sanjaymanjrekar]

No one can point one finger at India for not being able to win the game. In fact put all those fingers together & join your hands & clap! 👏👏👏 For SL and one man in particular…Sonal Dinusha.

[Rex Clementine @RexClementine]

Hundreds in each innings in a Test for Sonal Dinusha. He becomes eighth Sri Lankan to the milestone.
The seven others are; Duleep Mendis, Asanka Gurusinha, Aravinda de Silva, T.M. Dilshan, Kumar Sangakkara, Kamindu Mendis and Dhananjaya de Silva. Aravinda and Sanga did it twice.

[Harsha Bhogle @bhogleharsha]

Goodbye Sri Lanka, loved coming here. So many smiles, cars stopping to let people cross the road, clean air...And yes, your young fellows can bat. And the annasi is as good as ever. See you soon.

A 💯 yesterday, a 💯 today 👏

Sonal Dinusha is the third batter to score twin hundreds in a Test for a team that followed-on!

[Will Macpherson @willis_macp]

Batting 154 overs following on to save a Test - you don't see that much these days. Class

[Rex Clementine @RexClementine]

Gary Kirsten on Sonal Dinusha.
‘Never easy to come out to bat at number six. He is a smart cricketer. This innings today would go down in history of Sri Lankan cricket as one of the greatest match saving knocks. It was great to watch.’

[Cricinfo @cricinfo]

The stars just made room

Sonal Dinusha 🌟

[Sanjay Manjrekar @sanjaymanjrekar]

Dear @icc & @bcci…
Vaibhav for Ind A recently & now Jaiswal… if you keep letting them get away with such behaviour, you train them to repeat such behaviour. It’s not good for the sport & crucially their own future too. 🙏

Nicely captured by AFP’s Ishara Kodikara.
