Sri Lanka captain Mahela Jayawardene has claimed that his side will be pushing for a series whitewash against England.
Jayawardene's team head to the second Test in Colombo on the back of a 75-run win in the first match and he has revealed that they will approach the game aggressively.
The 34-year-old said: "We will go for 2-0 because we play our best cricket when we are positive.
"When you play a team like England, you have to be aggressive and look to get in front of them from the first ball.
"They are a strong side and will come hard at us. But we are prepared for that and ready to play good cricket. We played well in Galle and must now look to improve on that."
Angelo Matthews has returned to the Sri Lanka squad for the match beginning on Tuesday.
