Player of the Match
Sadeera Samarawickrama | Sri Lanka
Really happy to finish the game for my team. We needed a win, we haven’t done well in the last 3 games, so I really wanted to win a game for my team and I am really happy.
When I went to bat the wicket was not easy, the ball was spinning and the pacers were bowling good line and lengths, my plan was to bat deep and play maximum overs, I did my basics right and hence succeeded.
I knew it would be hard in the later part because the wicket was turning and gripping, my plan for others was also to bat deep and told them we can’t chase this total in 40 overs. Today it was hard (to bat) against the spinners, the wicket was slow and the ball was gripping.
