http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MG-Johnson-c1945 commends Australian attack’s efforts – Cricket News Update
Australian pacer, Mitchell Johnson, has commended the efforts of the bowling attack after they put the home side in pole position following the conclusion of the opening day of the second Test against Sri Lanka.
Johnson, along with fast bowlers in debutant Jackson Bird and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 dismantle the tourists on 156 before the batters cemented their footing in the proceedings by going into stumps at 150 for 3.
Though the left-arm seamer was the architect of the Lankan demise, claiming a four-wicket haul which saw him reach 200 Test wickets, Johnson was further quick to laud the performances of the attack as a unit.

Johnson then got into the act by cleaning up http://www.senore.com/Cricket/KC-Sangakkara-c1779.
Siddle also chipped in by picking up the wickets of the Lankan skipper and vice-skipper, before http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Nathan-Michael-Lyon-c78822 got rid of the last two stands.
"To get http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Jackson-Munro-Bird-c65187 on debut performed very well, got two wickets himself to start us off in the morning. I think we bowled really well with the new ball, got those wickets early and we've just got to roll on from there."
Despite reaching a personal milestone, Johnson was simply pleased to do the job for the national team at a time when they are struggling to find a consistent bowling combination. The team has already lost the likes of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mitchell-Aaron-Starc-c76392, sparingly.
"Obviously with guys rotating in and out it can make it a little bit tough at times but we've stuck together as a bowling unit and done an exceptional job," the pacer added.
