Sa'adi Thawfeeq in Colombo
September 20, 2011
Tillakaratne Dilshan, Sri Lanka captain admitted his team are difficult to handle Muttiah Muralitharan and retired, said it would take time for their spouse bowlers who win these tests. Dilshan also said that he would continue to beat No. 5 tests, as it did in Colombo, because of the extra responsibility of the captain who had wanted more to do in the field.
"We have 11 tests without a win, but we lost only two tests, the other nine were drafted. After Murali to retire We're still trying to find a player to win games for us," said Dilshan after the test Colombo in Australia was poised to win the series 1-0. "These are tough times for cricket in Sri Lanka. Bowlers, we're inexperienced, they played only 5-10 tests, and we must continue with them for a while 'and give them the experience before you can start winning again.
"If you take the last 10-15 years, was Murali and [Chaminda] Vaas, who won test matches for us. We need to groom players can at least be close to this level. I am very happy in this window young CSE quick players managed to reject a strong batting line-up of 316 and gave us the opportunity to press for a win. "
Dilshan opened the baton to Sri Lanka in the test series at home against New Zealand in August 2009, with an average of 47.20 at the top compared to an average of 41.75, which in the order of the environment. However, he struggled with the bat in the first two tests against Australia and fell to the third order, and said it would continue to bat in the order in half.
"I consider batting at number five because I have to do many things in the middle, except the captain [63 Dilshan upset offspin overs for the series]. After the break just ten minutes, it is difficult to open. I come, I stick to No. 5 in test matches to come. I scored most of my runs in Test cricket as a drummer in the Middle control. I spoke with Marvan [Atapattu] batting coach, and he told me that I managed well with the bat to average 5 and 6. I thought I bat down the order and give a second drummer to open. "
One reason for the abandonment of the open position can be expected Dilshan Sri Lanka goes for many of their tests with only one specialist spinner, which means you have more than one bowl. "We spinners we can use as Randiv Suraj Prasanna Ajantha Mendis Seekuge and but you have to give them more experience. Play against a unit with no experience as a melon Australia can not come to play. If we play a mixture of 7-4, that only can play a spinner. "
Dilshan down the order, in the sense that it is hard to find a place to Thilan Samaraweera in the side test, and 22 years, Lahiru Thirimanne could become a permanent member of the XI Paranavitana Tharanga opening. "We need to discuss your options and where you beat Thilan order," said Dilshan.
After dominating most of the first two tests have taken a lead in Sri Lanka first innings in the third and Dilshan said they had the opportunity to level series that points to the lost chance to miss Michael Clarke on the fifth day when Clarke was just 13, 112 at the end to help save the event. "We lost a court. If we had been short of it would have been a different story today," said Dilshan.
While Clarke and Phillip Hughes scored centuries in the second innings in Colombo, said it was Dilshan man of the series Michael Hussey was the key man for the line-up of Australia. "He hit the Galle tailenders and has 95 and has changed the face of the meeting. Did the same in Pallakele and earned a cent in the third test, which is another hundred. He is the main type of stick range. They are very strong with him in the center. The bat around him. "
