Sri Lanka Cricket has appointed Dhananjaya de Silva as Test captain, with Kamindu Mendis as vice-captain, while Kusal Mendis will lead both the ODI and T20I teams, with Kamindu Mendis acting as his deputy for the West Indies tour.
Beyond me how no team pre-signed Nissanka or Pathirana yet went for Mathews, Chandi & Rajapaksa instead. Nissanka best local batter rn will end up earning less than 38-year-old Mathews. LPL logic is something else.
Found it from archives! What an era that was. Peak sanga in tests. Lucky are those who witnessed.
Records are of cours, records. Post 2005, there could be a thesis done on how dominant peak sanga was. This human averaged 64.50 overseas. averaged over 34 in every country, and scored a ton everywhere except in Wi.Sangakkara scoring more than 50 runs is 49.28% of the number of innings he has batted. (69 out of 140 innings)
some people just love to spark pointless controversies that sanga inflated his overseas average because he smashed Zimbabwe and Bangladesh more. Truth is well he scored just 1893 runs against them, which is a very negligible fraction of the total number of runs. He was elite no matter what. You wanna put filters, put.
