Australia will come back strongly but we are happy to have played a fine first test. Taking them to the fifth day of the match has been no mean achievement for us.

Compared to our previous matches against Sri Lanka, we have definitely made significant improvements in the first Test. I must say this time we were more competitive than the past. It is untrue that we have not learned from our mistakes. But I agree that we need a lot more to do in the long run.
absolutely brilliant carried carry innings lesson match possible settled
The way the young Sri Lankan carried his innings was absolutely brilliant and I think he snatched the match from us. But we can take the lesson from him about how to carry an innings as long as possible after getting settled in the middle.

They managed to get runs even after losing several wickets while we just caved in. We did well overall, but now have to forget the first match and start performing all over again.
altogether case condition difficult match mind name pakistan situation tail test vulnerable whereas
I think the situation was more difficult here than the Test match in Pakistan. Pakistan had a very vulnerable tail whereas it was not the case for the Australians and the condition was also altogether a different one. And mind it, the opponent's name is Australia.

I am upset and worried with the way we lost too many wickets in the early stage. We did it in the first match and repeated in the second. I think this was the reason we lost our way.

everybody fails great hardly lies looks mental mind plays problem rather technique
He looks as if he is in need of a rest. I think there is hardly any problem in his technique and the problem rather lies in mental strength. When he plays he looks like any other great batsman in the world but then he fails to live up to the expectation. And everybody should mind that he is just 21 years old.
batting definitely good outfield toss win
It is a very good batting wicket and the outfield is fantastic. I definitely want to win the toss here.
