Sri Lanka defeated England by 100 runs in the second Test, thus providing skipper Angelo Mathews with the ideal response to criticism from the host's former captain Michael Vaughan regarding his 'county cricket' jibe.
Mathew's side won the second Test at Headingley after paceman Shaminda Eranga dismissed England No 11 James Anderson with the penultimate ball of Tuesday's final day.
According to Sport24, Sri Lanka won the two-match contest 1-0, after the visitors clung on for a draw in the first Test at Lord's with just one wicket standing.
This was Sri Lanka's first Test campaign win in England comprising more than one match and was the perfect response to Vaughan, who had damned the Lankan bowlers as a glorified 'county attack'.
Mathews, who was named man-of-the-match in Leeds after Test-best contributions with both bat and ball, said that it was an amazing victory, adding that after the first Test went down to the wire, to the last ball, the second Test also went to the last over.
Mathews also said that he hopes that his attack is better than a county attack, adding that there was a little bit of debate about that, that maybe his attack was not good enough for county cricket.
