Is Srilanka cricket team is really going to him a spectacular tribute he truly deserves or he has do it for himself ? Is Lanka going to pay him back for all his efforts all these years or leaving the burden on Sanga and asking him to do it for them and help them pay tribute to him ? |
| SANGAKKARA |
Kumar Chokshanada Sangakkara, Srilanka cricket iconic player is a legend who has Lanka's 12305 test runs,14234 ODI runs and 1382 T20 international runs from his account.This left handed batsman stood as a nightmare to the bowlers through out his time on the field,batting.This powerful cricket decendant of his preceeded left handed Srilanka's batsmen Arjuna Ranathunga and Asanka Gurusinha defined the words batting stardom in his own way more beautifully than many others during his batting tenure.May it be a ODI or test for that matter may it be any format of cricket with his perfect shots which seemed to be cut from a very fine cloth he marked his name on some of the milestones in cricket history.Mainly for Srilankan spinners,there is no amplification in saying that part of their confidence was standing behind the wickets saying them"Dont worry,the ball is going to be in safe hands if its going be an edge or stumping".Sangakkara also contibuted alot as wicket keeper since long.
He guarded Lanka standing behind the stumps as captain.He is even great in person as he not only stands for a long at crease but also on his words.Before world cup 2011 he openly stated that we would give up his captaincy if he couldnt get the cup for his homeside.He selflessly blamed himself for the same and as said he left captaincy after Srilanka's fall at the finals against India despite of much struggle.
Even now his fans were a bit happy as they will be watching him ruling the game with bat in the best format,the test matches.But this happiness didnt last very long.He has announced his test retirement in the middle of India's tour of Srilanka 2015 leaving everyone downhearted.
Now the Lanka's decided to give him a great tribute.They decided to win this series for him.Spectators all over the world and even Indians are eagerly waiting for a spell-bounding performance from Sangakkara but things are happening in a different way.Srilankans won the toss but were not up to winning fans hearts with their performance.They fell at the very first fence and its shocking to see Sanga dismissed early at just 5 runs.
