Sanath Jayasuriya's agreement as men's lead trainer is probably going to be stretched out for a year, following his prosperity with the Sri Lanka group throughout the course of recent months. The group has beaten India in an ODI series, won a Test at The Oval, and one more in Galle against New Zealand since he took over as break mentor toward the beginning of July. Sri Lanka Cricket had publicized the extremely durable lead trainer position following Chris Silverwood's exit in late June. Yet, with no less than two of Sri Lanka's three sides giving indications of progress under Jayasuriya, SLC has started the cycle to get Jayasuriya on a more extended term. "We are in the last phases of arranging the agreement with him," board Chief Ashley de Silva told ESPNcricinfo. "Most likely in the following a few days you will get to hear more." Jayasuriya had initially been designated cricket specialist for one year in December last year, a job that would have for the most part made them work with the Superior Presentation Community. However, he went with the group to the current year's T20 World Cup, and consequently played the lead trainer job. Under him, there have likewise been a T20I series misfortune against India, in addition to two Test routs in Britain. Be that as it may, the triumphs have offset these. Sri Lanka are currently in the chase after a World Test Title last spot, and Jayasuriya's next agreement will take the group past the finish of the continuous cycle. Criticism from players has likewise been positive, with Angelo Mathews - the most experienced player in the Test side - having portrayed Jayasuriya assuming control over the group as a "defining moment". "Sanath Jayasuriya was wonderful as cricket chief and presently as mentor," he said. "He conveys well and has provided us with a great deal of opportunity. We are making progress toward one objective, and presently everybody is in total agreement. He's likewise made a great showing prepping the players. He has been astonishing. I hope everything turns out great for him all." Jayasuriya had recently been boss selector in two distinct spells somewhat recently, however these had generally been characterized by humble exhibitions from the men's group. There has been greater security during his continuous task, nonetheless.
