But, even as he said it, he conceded that he had not been involved in one of the key tactical decisions that defined the Pallekele victory. He was as surprised as anyone how much his players swept.

"It was a surprise," Bayliss said. "No one sat down and said 'look, we've got to sweep or play straight'. If you played across the line years ago you'd have got clip behind the ear. It just seemed that, on this wicket, both sides decided the sweep shot was the shot to go to and that it was actually easier than the straight bat. We've had criticism at times for the way we've approached the game but one thing that never gets spoken about is the skill of these guys to go out and play in that fashion and score 600-plus on that type of wicket. That was fantastic."
