Colombo: Impressed with India’s aggressive brand of cricket in the two Test matches so far, former Sri Lanka pacer Chaminda Vaas today said that the five-bowler theory is reaping rich results for the young visiting side.
Trailing the three-match series, India came from behind to humble the islanders by 278 runs and deny Kumar Sangakkara a fairytale ending in his swansong as the visitors drew level the rubber at 1-1. Vaas said the Indian unit has played good cricket to turn it around.
“It is good that India are playing aggressive cricket. All good sides do, especially when they play with five bowlers. They are rebuilding under Virat Kohli and I like their aggressive brand of cricket,” said Vaas.
“At Galle, they got bogged down after the match turned against them. But they didn’t let that happen again. Sri Lanka will have to play very good cricket to try to beat them again,” he added. “Playing five bowlers gives a certain balance to the teams. There may not be proper all-rounders in there, but all good sides have players who can perform dual roles,” said Vaas.
