People Knew The Way That Sri Lankan Cricketers Played The Game, Says Aravinda De Silva
Sri Lanka’s recent international assignment saw them beat India 2-1 in a bilateral ODI series for the first time in 27 years at home. But their next international series, starting on August 21, puts them up against an England Test side, who recently beat West Indies 3-0.
“That was Sri Lanka playing like no other side has done in history. We had an identity, people knew the way that Sri Lankan cricketers played the game and teams wanted to emulate that. I don’t think we have that at the moment,” said de Silva to inews.co.uk.
