adminCOLOMBO. — The Proteas have descended from the high of winning the first Test cricket against Sri Lanka, and have shifted their focus to the final match starting in Colombo tomorrow.
Proteas vice-captain, AB de Villiers, says the squad is hungry and committed to finishing the tour off with a win, and will not back off despite the fact that the series can’t be lost.
“It was great to have had a day off yesterday just to reflect and celebrate an amazing and special win,” he said after training yesterday.
“In saying that, it’s not rocket science, there is a huge test coming up. We would love to win the series 2-0, winning both the ODI’s and Tests would be special for us as a team.
“It will be important for us to lay the foundation again on Thursday like we did in the first Test in Galle,” he said.
“I thought we started really well and it gave us the freedom to express our talent over the five days.”— AFP.
