SA's Maharaj wants "old fashioned Test cricket" on final day as Lanka threaten to chase down 348 in 2nd Test

Hindustan Times  

Gqeberha, : South African spinner Keshav Maharaj said that the team hopes to go back to "old fashioned Test cricket" to get themselves the remaining half of the Sri Lankan batting line-up in the second Test while defending 348 runs to secure a series win which would be instrumental to their ICC World Test Championship 2023-25 final qualification. SA's Maharaj wants "old fashioned Test cricket" on final day as Lanka threaten to chase down 348 in 2nd Test On day four during the second innings, Maharaj was the last bowler to strike for the Proteas, before Kusal Mendis and skipper Dhananjaya de Silva battled it out for 18.5 overs, ending the day four at 205/5, leaving them with just 143 more runs to chase. The wicket becomes a little bit more placid but we did go searching a little bit, if I am honest, Hopefully tomorrow we'll go back to old-fashioned Test cricket like we did in that period where we got those seven wickets in the morning." Dane Paterson took a magnificent five-wicket haul for Proteas while Marco Jansen, Keshav Maharaj got two scalps and Aiden Markram got one.
