Pathum Nissanka made an incredible century at the Oval today to win Sri Lanka the third Test. On our first tour there we were told about this brilliant young batter, poised for greatness, in great need of cricket kit. We provided it and, with help from our generous friends at Sportsqvest, gave him more two years later. A decade on he is playing all three formats for Sri Lanka.

Few greater sights in cricket than Mark Wood bowling at full tilt. Almost every ball over 90mph.
