Despite the loss to Pakistan in the final of the ICC World Twenty20, Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara still was proud of his teammates.
"I'm very proud of the team, the attitude they have showed and the stomach for a fight. We'll return stronger from the tournament," he said.
Sangakkara said the Sri Lankan batsmen have been below-par at times and relied too much on the bowlers to gloss over their frailties.
20-runs short
"We did not bat well on more than one occasion. It was tough for the bowlers to keep on defending low totals and even today, we fell some 20-odd runs short," he rued.
"I believe we have the best bowling unit in the world at the moment and we have a lot of cricket ahead of us," he said.
