A career that only inspires, Kumar Sangakkara has inspired many, not only in Sri Lanka but also cricketers all across the globe to take up the game.

Here, Sangakkara walks through an ‘archway of cricket bats’ as he takes to the field during the opening day of their second Test match between Sri Lanka and India at the P. Sara Oval Cricket Stadium.
