Excellent! Let's hope, all of them get together and motivate the SL team along with the ideal technique in alien England conditions to win the test series in England.

Thank you Sanath Jeyasuriya Thursday, 08 August 2024 04:35 PM

Sanath Jeyasuriya is a legend, I remember the 1996 World Cup when he together with Kaluwithirane massacred the Indians with lightning batting from the word “go”. Both of them change the batting concept in OneDay games. Then few years later , Sri Lanka cowardly stayed silent when Indians mounted corruption charges and tried to discredit Jeyasuriya. But to us Jeyasuriya is an HONEST HERO. Now he has taken over Sri Lankan cricket , we are on the path to cricketing domination.

One day cricket required temperament and technique is different to test cricket required temperament and technique and the genuine skills matter in test cricket. Sanga knows well and he should do some good to our test team, in England in that regard as batting will be a challenge in England and technique matters considerablly.

Premadasa Stadium is a spinners paradise. The side that wins the toss bats first and wins the game. As such the pitch has come for scrutiny by the ICC several times in the past. Fortunately Sri Lanka won the toss all three times and I saw Indian captain's head drop when he realised he lost the toss for the third time and the game too.
