Hmm, that's true. But on either side of slumps, our batsmen had decent outings too. Eitherway, he didn't uncover any new batsman, didn't change any techniques of anyone. In general, he had very little impact on the batting. For example, our best batsmen in the WC were Mahmudullah and Mushy, who had been in an upward curve since last couple of years.
Let's agree to disagree. I'll hold of judgement of Hathurasinghe untill after the end of 2015. That's a long enough time for him to have some noticeable impact. But right now I'm struggling to muster any respect for him after his unprofessional comments. Nevertheless all the best to him.
