The West Indian legend Sir Garfield Sobers posed for a photo with the vice-captain of Sri Lanka test squad Rangana Herath at P Sara stadium before starting the 2nd test match between Sri Lanka and West Indies.

Rangana Herath, who has spearheaded the Sri Lankan bowling attack for the past six years since the retirement of Muttiah Muralitharan, on October 10 announced that he would take his retirement call after T20 World Cup 2016.

The ongoing Sri Lanka and West Indies series was named after Sir Sobers and former Sri Lankan Cricketer Michael Tissera.
