Sanath Jayasuriya brings to the Sri Lankan team an all round ability which any captain
would willingly have under his command.The fact that he has achieved both the highest
score by a Sri lankan in One Day cricket(140 vs New Zealand),& the best bowling
analysis(6 for 29) is ample testment to his contribution to the side.An agressive
opening batsmen,who relishes the challenge of hitting out over the top, and is in
posession of the range of strokes to do it effectively,he can give his side very welcome
impetus early in the innings.Coupled with his gentle but reliable left-arm orthodox
bowling,and his outstanding ability at any position in the field, his importance to the side
cannot be unerestimated
