Amid all the tension, the squad suffered another nerve-wrenching moment on their way back to Sri Lanka from England. It was reported that the flight suffered fuel loss and the team had to land in India instead. ?We had to divert to India because we lost fuel. When I landed in India, I switched my phone on and I had a couple of messages from Wayne Bentley [England?s operations manager] who updated on the situation and that was a really nerve-wracking time for all of us,? Mickey Arthur, Sri Lanka?s head coach, told talkSPORT.
