🇱🇰🏏පළමු දින දෙකේ ශ්රී ලංකා කණ්ඩායමේ දක්ෂතා ගැන සහ තරගයේ ඉදිරිය ගැන අදහස් දැක්වූ අපේ රසල්..🙏❤️
👊 " I think the cricket we played was pretty good. When we first went to bat, we saw a lot of difference in our technique and in the application. It was not easy that pitch, 355 is a big score.We leaved the ball properly, knew exactly where the off stump was. Also scored runs for bad balls. That's how we got out of the pressure. And when it comes to bowling, our fast bowlers haven't played Test cricket for 7-8 months. We are playing out of sub contient after 2 years. Therefore, these bowlers is not used to controlling such an innings. At such a time, the way those three bowled lot of overs and created pressure was quite good. There are small patches in the middle of the pitch where the ball was hit, In day 3 & 4 when the ball is hit in those areas the ball will moves quickly. We need 300 to 350 runs in the fourth innings to put pressure on the New Zealand team." 💯
