India won the series 3-2 and Mendis took 13 wickets at 11.69 but he said the Indians played him cautiously."Talented batsmen learn quickly and correct their mistakes," Mendis told the Sunday Lakbima News, a Sri Lanka-based weekly. "It should be like that. I didn't expect it to be so successful. But I should say this - I've a long way to go."Mendis also said English counties Sussex, Surrey and Kent had expressed interest in him but he decided to take a month off to rest. He also planned to work on his batting during the period.He asked fans and the media not to expect too much from him for that put him under a lot of pressure. "I'm still new to this field. Don't worry. I know how to use my head. I don't run after money. My first place is for cricket. I'll get everything if only I play well." </blockquote>
