Colombo : Sri Lankan batsman and wicket-keeper Kumar Sangakkara believes playing at home will give his side added inspiration to win the ICC World Twenty20 Sri Lanka 2012.
Speaking to ICC Cricket 360, Sangakkara says knowledge of home conditions will be added advantage for the event in September.
I think we have got some great players. Whoever makes that the final squad will be the best available players to make up the combination to help us win the ICC World Twenty20. Knowing our conditions, playing at home is going to be an added buzz and an added inspiration, Sangakkara said.
However, Sangakkara thinks preparation for the tournament is going to be the key for Sri Lanka during the tournament.
Preparation is going to be very important. Then it becomes less of a lottery and more about performing consistently. Of course T20 changes in a matter of a couple of deliveries and an over here or there can shift momentum or you can also lose your game, he said.
Playing two ICC Cricket World Cup finals and an ICC World Twenty20 final has been incredible, he added.
