The performance of the England cricket team has tremendously improved over the years, and the team has gained higher rankings in all formats of the game, Test No. In the 20/20 format the Sri Lankan team is at No.13, lower than even countries like the Netherlands and Ireland. Performance of our team in all six matches played, clearly reflects timelines and the effectiveness of the selection criterion. The other debatable point is the role played by our well-paid international coaches. Further, a manager was appointed to look after the team, and he played a highly appreciable role especially in maintaining discipline.
