Kandy (Sri Lanka), Aug 11(ANI): Australian captain Michael Clarke has told his teammates that they have set a standard to build on with their victory over Sri Lanka in the first ODI at Kandy.
Australia romped to a crushing seven-wicket win over Sri Lanka at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium on Wednesday.
"We've just got to continue to learn, continue to get better. I think that's the one thing I want to make clear here today, that, yes, I'm happy with our performance, but we've still got a long way to go and I hope that is just the start of what's to come," the Sydney Morning Herald quoted Clarke, as saying.
Clarke further said that his team showed that they are a very good one-day team and can adjust to different types of conditions around the world.
However, he also highlighted that they had plenty to prove on the tour of the island nation.
"I'm really happy with the way we won this game. I think we've come out and performed as we like. I just hope we can continue to play like this," the 30-year-old said.
"There's areas that we still need to improve, don't get me wrong, but I think we're off to a fantastic start in this series," he added. (ANI)
