Daryl Mitchell NZ | ALL
The batting all-rounder continued his red-hot form by smashing a century in the first innings and an 81 off 86 in the first Test against Sri Lanka.
Dimuth Karunaratne SL | BAT
The Sri Lankan skipper scored a crucial 50 off 87 in the first innings and 17 off 45 in the second innings of the first Test. Karunaratne also scored a half-century in the previous Test against Pakistan and will be a key batter for his team in the upcoming Test.
