HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) Sri Lanka leads the second test against Zimbabwe by 334 runs and is poised for a 2-0 series victory after stand-in captain Rangana Herath spun the home team out cheaply on Day 3 on Tuesday.
Herath took 5-89 to help limit Zimbabwe to 272 all out in its first innings, becoming the third player to take a five-for against every other test nation, joining Muttiah Muralitharan and Dale Steyn.
Sri Lanka was 102-4 in its second innings at stumps but held a big lead off the back of its 504 in the first innings.
