Former England batter Mark Butcher slammed the Three Lions for their “slapdash, gung ho” batting against Sri Lanka in the third Test of the recently-concluded series, saying that they aided Lankan Lions in their victory through their poor batting. Though Sri Lanka offered moments of fight and resilience, they lost the three-match Test series to England 2-1, but not without handing the hosts a painful eight-wicket loss at The Oval on Monday, their first-ever to the Island nation in 10 years at home and just fourth against them at home.
