"We Have Plans To Counter Bazball": Sanath Jayasuriya's Bold Statement Ahead Of England vs Sri Lanka Test Series

Sanath Jayasuriya, the interim Sri Lanka men's head coach, believes the Test team set to play three games against England in the latter half of the summer is a great opportunity, citing the conditions will suit the visitors. Sri Lanka starts their Test series against England on August 21 at Old Trafford in Manchester. “The fact that we have got a late-summer tour is great, because the wickets have been used a lot, and there's more sunshine at this time of year. It's more similar to our conditions than the early summer tours. I have made sure the players know it's a great opportunity,” Jayasuriya told ESPNCricinfo.

Nasser Hussain Thinks Ollie Pope's Appointment As Test Captain For Sri Lanka Series Augurs Well For England

Former captain Nasser Hussain thinks Ollie Pope's appointment as England Test skipper for the upcoming series against Sri Lanka augurs well for the side ahead of the all-important Ashes happening next year in Australia. Pope was made England captain for the Sri Lanka series starting on August 21 as Ben Stokes was ruled out due to a torn hamstring. "I think it's good for Pope to be captain for three Tests, just in case, Ben Stokes does get injured in the future. They need other options. Just like when they go to Australia, and they don't want a bowling attack that's inexperienced. You don't want to get there with someone (leading) who hasn't done it before," said Hussain in the latest episode of Sky Sports Cricket Podcast.
