Angelo Mathews insists Sri Lanka must move on from their Headingley glory of 2014 as they set their sights on more heroics at the same venue in the first Investec Test against England, live on Sky Sports. Mathews will be captain again when the three-Test series gets under way on Thursday, as he was when Sri Lanka inflicted an agonising defeat on England with the penultimate ball of the match two years ago.That brought them their first outright series victory in this country and for company back then, Mathews had Sri Lankas two greatest batsmen, Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene. James Anderson is left distraught as he is dismissed off the penultimate ball They have since retired from Test cricket and Mathews believes Sri Lankas best chance of more success in England is to allow the relatively recent past to remain there.Its certainly an inspiration, but its history for us, he said.

You can watch all the action live on Sky Sports from Thursday at 10am Mathews career-best 160 was the defining contribution to Sri Lankas 100-run win last time.With cloudy, often damp, weather expected, Mathews said: Well have to play our best cricket over the next five days to beat England, because we know they are a very competitive team.Especially in this kind of weather, playing against England in England, its a very tough ask.They must do so without the reassurance of two middle-order batsman who made more than 24,000 Test runs between them.We dont have the two legends now - weve got to move on, Mathews added. But theyve shared their experience, and its just a matter of our guys getting used to the conditions - theyve got the skill, theyve got the talent. England captain Alastair Cook with his team after losing the Headingley Test ion 2014 The ball will tend to swing and seam quite a lot, but dont get intimidated by the conditions - watch the ball and hit it.They will be without Dhammika Prasad, the seamer who ran through Englands top order last time with five second-innings wickets. He injured his shoulder in last weeks warm-up match against Essex.That is a setback for us, said Mathews. Hes our premier fast bowler, and performed really well against England here.

DENVER -- Semyon Varlamov preferred his play do his talking, and it spoke volumes for the Colorado Avalanche. Varlamov made 33 saves and Ryan OReilly had a goal and scored in the shootout as the Avalanche beat the New Jersey Devils 2-1 on Thursday night. Matt Duchene also scored in the shootout for the Avalanche, who have won three straight -- with the last two thanks in large part to the play of their reticent goaltender. "I hate talking about myself. Ask Patrick," Varlamov said, deferring to coach Patrick Roy. Colorado didnt need much offence with Varlamov in net. After stopping 46 shots in a 3-2 overtime win in Chicago on Tuesday, Varlamov had another strong game against the Devils. He made five saves on a power play early in the third and then made another on Patrik Elias point-blank shot from the slot with about 13 minutes left. The Avalanche nearly took a 2-0 lead on Duchenes wrister moments later, but Schneider made the save. Varlamov had five saves in overtime and then stoned Elias and Adam Henrique in the shootout. "I got a guy lying on his stomach and I couldnt finish it," Elias said. Roy had no problem praising his goalie. "I like the effort we had from our goalie. He made some great saves," Roy said. "We put a lot on our goalie and our goalie has been phenomenal." Cory Schneider stopped 37 shots and Andrei Loktionov scored for the Devils, who had their two-game winning streak stopped. The Devils are 0-8 in shootouts this season, with Schneider losing half of those. New Jersey has lost 12 straight shootouts dating to last season. Schneider couldnt end the drought after keeping his team in the game for the first two periods. "I dont know what it is right now, Im not coming up with the saves in the shootout,&qquot; he said after his fourth shootout loss of the season.dddddddddddd. "When youre not getting wins from it and youre leaving points on the table, it matters." The Avalanche played without centre Paul Stastny (leg) and defenceman Cory Sarich (back) for the second straight game. Roy chose to dress just 11 forwards and go with seven defencemen against the Devils. OReilly, double-shifting on the fourth line, opened the scoring at 8:55 of the first. He took a pass from behind the net from Patrick Bordeleau and beat Schneider with a high snap shot from the slot. It was his team-leading 18th of the season. "We ran a cycle play after Malone kept the puck in," OReilly said. "Malone did that and Bordy saw me alone out front and I got the shot off quick." Colorado held a 13-2 shot advantage in the second period and controlled play for most of the first 40 minutes. Things changed in the third when New Jersey found its legs and put 18 shots on Varlamov. "The way we played in the third, it seemed like they couldnt play with us," Elias said. "It was like two different games." The Devils tied it at 1 when Loktionov beat Varlamov with a slap shot from the right circle at 8:59. Colorado had two good chances late in the third, but Schneider made a save on John Mitchell and Nathan MacKinnon shot wide of the net. New Jerseys Steve Bernier nearly scored right after that when his shot skipped through the crease. NOTES: Duchene celebrated his 23rd birthday Thursday. ... The Devils activated Elias and C Jacob Josefson from IR and assigned F Mike Sislo to Albany of the AHL ... Colorado sent G Sami Aittokallio to Lake Erie of the AHL. Aittokallio served as Varlamovs backup while Jean-Sebastien Giguere dealt with back spasms.
