As I felt, what you wanted to insist here is not about cricket, but the lesson that should be learnt from the final result. Am I correct lakshan;) ?

As a Sri Lankan, I enjoy all the tree forms of Cricket. It was a really good fight back from a seemingly hopeless situation. When our regular match winners are not around three unconventional heroes stepped up to save the day. I was watching the match and was very happy to see our teamwork. I was much impressed by Thusaras bowling. It might be just me, but I noticed something different from him from his previous games. Overall it gives us bright hopes towards the future of the team and also the game (specially Test format). It was hard to grip when Sanath retired, that he'll not be playing in Tests any more. Someday we'll have to feel the same when Murali, Vass, Mahela, Sanga and any other key players go out of the game. So I'm not going to fret about who wasn't there and what could've been. What's important it they pulled of a small miracle here just with regular ammunition. On a side note, I'm happy the way the team is going. Specially the way Sanga is leading and how Mahela stands by him. I believe Sanga has what it takes to give our team the iron build which we saw in Aussies few years back in time. And for the record, I think Sanath should play till the next world cup in ODIs. :) I also like Test Cricket, but I’m not a purist who’s against ODI and T20.
