New Delhi: With Ravichandran Ashwin and Amit Mishra tormenting Sri Lankan team in the first two Tests, former captain Sanath Jayasuriya feels that the newer crop of batsmen emerging from the island nation have not done proper assessment of their ability to handle quality spinners.

Asked if there is some kind of technical deficiency in current Asian batsmen, who were considered to be good players of spin bowling, the dashing left-hander said,"I think Sri Lankan batsmen are struggling more against spin. We think we are good at spin but we are not. Also it's because both the sides have quality spinners."
