Till the last session, we fought well and played as a team.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Unfortunately, the last 10-15 overs brought a lot of pressure but we played good cricket and competed well,&quot; he said after the match.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The visiting captain said his team needed to learn how to battle in the second innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;We&#39;ll have to learn how to battle, especially in the second inning s. In UAE also, we didn&#39;t bat well in the second innings against Pakistan. If we can do that, we can do a lot better.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Chandimal had nice words for Lankan pacer Suranga Lakmal, who returned figures of 7\/119 from the match.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The 30 year old Matara-born bowler had impressive figures of 4\/26 in the first innings, with his victims including Indian openers Lokesh Rahul and Shikhar Dhawan and skipper Virat Kohli.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In India&#39;s second innings, Lakmal sent Rahul, Chetweshwar Pujara an d Ajinkya Rahane (0) packing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Lakmal is unbelievable, especially over the last one or two years. He&#39;s one who you can trust as a captain,&quot; Chandimal said.<\/p>\r\n",
