Sanath out to slap Ara once more [January 16 2011]  

World Cup discard Sanath Jayasuriya will be hoping for a repeat performance when Ruhuna Province take on Basnahira Province in another SLC Inter Provincial limited overs cricket tournament match at the SSC ground in Maitland Place tomorrow.

The veteran opener guided his team to a convincing victory over Uva Province in their previous outing by smashing a rapid 97 runs with ten boundaries. This time he will face some stiff opposition against the Basnahira pace of Lasith Malinga, Chaminda Vaas, Thilan Thushara and Thisara Perera.
