The Sri Lanka vs England test series ended today with England winning the second test match at P. Sara stadium by 8 wickets to level the series at 1-1. It was a dominant performance by the Englishmen after they were beaten comprehensively by the Sri Lankans at Galle. Sri Lanka fought hard and did well to take the game to day 5. In then end , defeat was inevitable and the team failed to win a test series yet again.

Mahela Jayawardene - Sri Lanka's Best Ever Test Batsman

It took me a while to accept this but now, I totally believe it. Mahela Jayawardene is the best ever test batsman Sri Lanka has produced to date. That fact was confirmed today by Mahela himself with his epic innings against the Englishmen at Galle. An innings played when the chips were down and Sri Lanka perilously close to getting humiliated at their own den. In the end his solo effort took Sri Lanka 's score to respectability and can now eye a score of 300 for the first innings when at one time , even 250 was looking impossible.

Mahela for President..

The second final of the CB series was concluded in today in Adelaide where the Lankan Lions roared and thrashed the Australians by 8 wickets. It was the perfect reply to the fightback we gave in Hobart and I am pretty sure that we will win the 3rd final too in Adelaide and take this series. We deserve it, we have been the best and the most consistent team in the whole tournament.  But, we could not have come this far if we didn't have a captain like Mahela Jayawardene. He is a modern day “Captain Cool ",  the " Leader with a Lion Heart ".
