Golden moments of Sri Lankan cricket

Sri Lanka's 1st ever Test Cricket Match 1982 Day 1

I found this rare video on youtube. This is the first day highlights of Sri Lanka's first ever test with England. I was 7 years old at that time and still remember the event. We did not have a TV at that time; most people didn't and people followed cricket on radio. Have a look you will see a skinny Ranathunga, likes of Wettimuny, Mendis and Madugalle battling against Willis and Botham.
