Pitch and conditions

Sri Lanka’s main batsmen have found it tough going in Dambulla and here’s what captain  Sangakkara had to say about the pitch: “Over the years it’s been a tough wicket to read. It’s had various scores on it from low to high, the highest being 285. The key is not having a negative mindset going out there. It’s best to go out there with an open mind, assess the conditions very quickly and communicate it to the dressing room. Those few little basics that we talk about in building partnerships are going to be the key.”

Quotes
“You are never sure as to whether they will be explosive or be destructive. Sometimes they are a hard side to play, all the more so we should be thinking about our game a lot more that we should about theirs.”
Kumar Sangakkara on Pakistan

“We are aware of Sri Lanka’s strength we must stick to our basics every day and in every game. Sri Lanka’s fielding is fantastic and they have the upper hand in fielding. If we field like we did in the Twenty20 we can provide good competition.”
Younis Khan knows where his opponents have the edge
