Sri Lanka were all-out for 397 runs in their first innings of the Chattogram Test against Bangladesh on Monday at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, reports media.
Angelo Matthews was closing in on his second double century, but he had a brain-fade moment on the stroke of reaching the landmark, he tried to clear the infield but ended up giving a catch to Shakib Al Hasan at square-leg on 199.
His innings lasted for nine hours and 38 minutes, faced 397 deliveries but finally fell just one short of his second double hundred.
Nayeem Hasan took six wickets, his third five-wicket haul, and the off-spinner delivered his career-best performance by picking up six wickets for 105 runs.
