Sri Lanka at P Sara: 2 innings, 334 runs, 20 wickets

4 Fifty-plus scores by Sri Lanka's No. 6 batsmen against West Indies in Tests before Milinda Siriwardana's 68. The last instance was Tillakaratne Dilshan's 62 in Port-of-Spain in 2008. Hashan Tillakaratne is the only No. 6 to make a century against West Indies - he made 204 not out and 105 not out at the SSC and Galle respectively in 2001.

3 Number of West Indies left-arm spinners to take a four-wicket haul (or better) on debut in Tests before Jomel Warrican. The last one was Neil McGarrell, who took 4 for 72 on debut against South Africa in 2001. Alf Valentine has the best figures and the only five-for by a West Indies left-arm spinner on debut: he took 8 for 104 at Old Trafford in 1950.

16.7 Runs Sri Lanka batsmen have averaged in their last two innings at the P Sara Oval. They have made a total of 334 runs losing 20 wickets: they had been bowled out for 134 - their lowest total at this venue - by India in their second innings of the last Test here. Sri Lanka's total of 200 in this Test was the fifth-lowest at this venue. The 66 overs that Sri Lanka batted in their first innings is the third lowest for which they have been bowled out in a Test at this venue.

0 Number of fifty stands in Sri Lanka's innings; they managed to put up a total of 200 in spite of their highest stand being only 33 runs. This was only the tenth time that Sri Lanka had posted a total of 200-plus without a single fifty-run partnership in a Test innings. The last such innings also came recently - in the first innings of their last Test against India at the SSC, when they made 201 runs without a fifty stand. The highest such score for Sri Lanka had come against New Zealand in 1984 when they had been bowled out for 256.

2012 The last time a Sri Lanka opener was dismissed for a golden duck in Tests before Kaushal Silva. Tillakaratne Dilshan had got out without scoring on the first ball he faced at the MCG. The last time this happened in the first innings of a Test was in 2009, when Tharanga Paranavitana got out to Umar Gul off the first ball he faced in the Karachi Test. Silva is going through a lean patch in Tests with his last ten innings producing seven single-digit scores including two ducks. He has made 116 runs at an average of 11.60 in these ten innings.

10 Number of first-class matches Kusal Mendis had played before making his Test debut in this match. Mendis had scored 459 runs including a hundred at an average of 30.60. Mendis, at 20 years and 262 days, is the youngest Sri Lanka Test debutant since Chamara Kapugedera, who was 19 years and 76 days old while making his debut against England in 2006.

90 Runs Sri Lanka had made when they lost their fifth wicket in their first innings; this is the second-lowest score on which Sri Lanka had lost half their side against West Indies in Tests. In Port-of-Spain in 2008, they had lost half their side for just 73 runs, which is the lowest.
