Irfan is past his prime and is getting old as well.

First time we are chasing, might not be what Indian fans would want from a team that they need to win. No Lee or Clarke and SL have their new spinner.

I actully don't mind because I don't think Lee has been that effective against Sri Lanka plus he is replaced by James Pattinson who bowled very well against India in test but idk how good is he in ODI's and at the death overs but Australia still has a steady side which can beat Sri Lanka.

 

[SLICKR392]

Darn no Pup & Binga.
Patt's gotta do some serious damage.

Just saw this on cricinfo :

"Rare moment for Australia: They will experience what it feels like to have a billion more fans!"

 

[SLICKR392]

I hope we come in numbers to cheer the Aussies up!

 

[SaiSrini]

Toss is lost, no Lee or Clarke, SL pick 2 spinners. All ominous signs for India. Anyways, it would be good that we ended the tour on an exhilarating high of smashing Sri Lanka to pulp.... Malinga wont forget that pounding that he got from Kohli. But that one tied match will come back to bite Dhoni in his back...

 

[aussie1st]

SL caught our run out bug

 

[SLICKR392]

That was some throw from Dussey !

 

[aussie1st]

Welcome back Pattinson, feels like he never left.

 

[Anjula]

Dinesh Chandimal realy got something to offer to sri lankan future.

----------

So, is Thissara Perera coming in at 3down?

 

[SLICKR392]

Finally!
These 2 could go on forever. Beaten by the pace!

 

[Anjula]

thissara not 3down

----------

Thirimanne can be easily removed by a slower delivery, Better bring in McKay

 

[aussie1st]

Our fielding is peaking at the right stage, couple of direct hits today.

 

[Sedition]

What the fearsome tweak was that Hilfy?
