6th August (CRICKETNMORE) - After a historic series win over Australia, Sri Lankan Captain Angelo Mathews has full praize for his winning team players. He also appreciated selectors for showing the the faith in the young team. Present below are Angelo Mathews excerpts said during the presentation ceremony:
About Team's Performance
Not too many teams do this to the number one team. Outstanding performance from us in the first and second Test. I was under a bit of pressure to win the toss and did that after which the players put in a brilliant effort, we backed Perera after a quiet Test match in the first game and he came back very strongly. Credit to the selectors for that move. When we play in these extreme conditions, we need to sweep and reverse sweep and it depends on the individual as to how they look to score runs.
