Great series win

Sri Lanka are not the strongest side these days to be honest but I think i'm right in saying they recently beat SA at home and i don;t think many sides will go there and whitewash them.

Whats great is that 2 or 3 years ago you would not have backed us to win on turning pitches that offer basically nothing for our seamers. We now have 3 good spinners and can compete in those conditions. Indeed the only conditions where you would say we still have a bit of a weakness in the bowling attack at the SA/Aussie type conditions where we need that extra pace. Hopefully though we can bring through Stone to rectify that gap because the rest of the squad is suddenly looking nicely balanced.
