🗣️: “T20 is about match-ups now, I tried to use my left arm spinners against their RHBs” - Rovman Powell after 2nd #SLvsWI T20I Match-ups are not simply spin away from batters ⚠️ It could be pace/spin, speed, line, length, plus much more. Match-ups are only effective when used

Both Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardena have nearly double the Test runs as him, but why do they still rate Aravinda as the greatest batter produced by Sri Lanka? Wrote this with Jarrod Kimber for Good Areas ⬇️ goodareas.co/aravinda-de-si…

Pathum Nissanka & Nishan Madushka is 🇱🇰 future for the openers slot If one’s injured the other should be the automatic back up till Dimuth retires. #SLvsAUS

🇱🇰 has access to Hawk Eye data, both in-game & immediately after each day. Surprised Sri Lanka Cricket 🇱🇰 didn’t use the data available to notice the slower speeds by seeing the impact points of 🇦🇺 batters - which would have shown how well they used their feet (back foot & coming down

This 🇱🇰 team continues to rise 🔥 Can this Sri Lanka Cricket 🇱🇰 team finally be the first to win an ODI series away from home vs a top ranked team since 2014? #SLvsAUS

Great move by Sri Lanka Cricket 🇱🇰 however would like to see some encouragement for schools to start playing T20 games There’s many different ways to incorporate T20s into the current school season

Couldn’t agree more! Rules were tweaked for “entertainment purposes” for TV to bring more boundaries, but it has killed the format… Whilst we are at it, bring back more tri-series!

This was how we used Maheesh Theekshana in 2022 🏹 His econ rate at death was one of the best 🎯 Still believe it’s the best role for Theekshana, allowing Sri Lanka Cricket 🇱🇰 to use Wella/Wani/Charith in middle if needed 🇱🇰 Sanath Jayasuriya Upul Tharanga Kumar Sangakkara

Couldn’t agree more with Estelle Vasudevan! Charith has been one of our most improved players in the last 12 months & the experience he would have got a side like Mumbai Indians or SunRisers Hyderabad would have been immense! Not just from a batting strategy point of view but also from a
