Kumar Sangakkara feels that Sri Lanka could have done better in the Test series against England – Cricket News Update
Former Sri Lankan captain http://www.senore.com/Cricket/KC-Sangakkara-c1779 is very disappointed that his team could not avoid a Test series defeat against England but he is also positive about the way some of the youngsters played in foreign conditions.
Although Sangakkara resigned from captaincy after the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/TM-Dilshan-c2691 was ruled out because of a thumb injury.
While talking after the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rose-c86842 Bowl Test, Sangakkara said that Sri Lankan cricket is in a rebuilding phase at the moment but the team should still have done better.
The left hander said, "We're a side in transition, but in a way we've fallen http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Short-c90107. Everyone can look at themselves and think they could have done things better over the past few weeks. We will learn our lessons from the tour, there are many things to ponder, but it's been a great experience and a lot of the players have been superb in the last few weeks."
Sangakkara is considered as one of the most technically sound batsmen in International cricket but he has had a mixed series in England. He struggled in the first couple of matches but bounced back in style at Rose Bowl as he scored a match-saving hundred on the last day to avoid a 0-2 loss in the series, which would have looked http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gordon-Muchall-c1499 worse for the visitors.
While talking about hispersonal performance, the top order batsman was very happy that he made an impact in the last match of the series.
"My technique has always been pretty good but there are a few adjustments you need to make for playing in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Arthur-Percival-Day-c45927 to have finally scored a century here,” Sangakkara added.
The Islanders lost the Test series but they can take consolation in the fact that they fought really hard against one of the best Test teams of the world. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 will now be targeting the limited overs series to take the revenge from the home team.
