Thushara happy to play a full series,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
"This is only my sixth Test and although I played in the West Indies and in Pakistan I did not play regularly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Thushara said. "This is the first time I have been able to play in an entire [three-Test] series and take wickets."
This series has shown a vast improvement in Thushara's approach as a bowler and he put it down to hard work at the nets,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. "We do spot bowling concentrating on line and length under the watchful eyes of the coaches,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Even at practice we have to put in 100% effort like bowling in a match,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. That could be the difference why our performance levels have improved,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]."
Thushara and Nuwan Kulasekara have proved to be an excellent pair of new-ball bowlers for Sri Lanka,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], taking 23 wickets between them in the series. "Not only in this series,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but I have bowled in partnership with Nuwan in several one-day internationals and we have been successful,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Thushara said.
"The SSC wicket is a bit slow and with the second new ball you can swing it both ways. In the previous two Tests it was with the second new ball that we were able to make the breakthrough. The wicket is slower than we thought and the ball came nicely on the bat for the batsmen. Compared to the Galle and Oval wickets,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], this wicket is more batsman-friendly.
Thushara said the Pakistan lower order was vulnerable against the new ball,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. "We hope to take the balance wickets early morning the ball is still new,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. I feel we had a good day today taking seven wickets and we don't regret inviting Pakistan to bat first,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]."
