South Africa v Sri Lanka ODI Series 2012

[Sedition]

Just a note for the up and coming ODI series, any player that has been rested will not be replaced.

Pretty sure that means we're stuck with them. Maybe a new rule.. can't be replaced unless it's your captain

Sri Lanka in South Africa 2011-12: Jacques Kallis and Hashim Amla to miss rest of ODI series | Cricket News | South Africa v Sri Lanka | ESPN Cricinfo

Alma's case is somewhat a first I have seen or heard of and my feeling is that we should be allowed to replace him!

 

[Sedition]

Thanks for the Mendis sub

Only 7 people without Kallis or Amla as captain by my count. 5 for de Villiers and 1 Steyn/Duminy. Hopefully South Africa get thrashed in the next match or two, de Villiers gets some ducks, and Kallis is brought back in

 

[Addy]

haha +1

 

[ZexyZahid]

Dilshan didn't get a duck this time and that is a good start.

 

[Sedition]

Still no Thisara Perera 22 years old and averaging 23 with the ball in ODI's, 15 with the bat and still can't make the team. Obviously one or both Kulasekaras are related to a selector

Mahela Jayawardene has been ruled out for the next few weeks with a back injury

South Africa v Sri Lanka, 4th ODI, Kimberley: Sri Lanka and Smith under pressure | Cricket News | South Africa v Sri Lanka | ESPN Cricinfo

so would like to replace him with Dilshan (reserve player 1)

 

[Addy]

du plessis in for jaya please.

 

[Sedition]

Tharanga in for Jayawardene please.

In other news, Steyn is being rested for the last 2 games and Morne may also be rested for Philander, so I've lost my captain and 3 bonus players

Some good news, Perera may finally play in place of the crap Kulasekara.

 

[Addy]

crap!!! I have one SA quick only Steyn that is and that too is being rested

 

[Sedition]

My hopes and dreams rest on Tharanga, Perera and Tsotsobe being the only superstars in the next 2 games

 

[ZexyZahid]

Wasn't recently a rule changed for this?

'The injury replacement rule only applies to the first half of the ODI series so for a 7 match series, injury replacements are covered up to the 4th ODI.'

For my team Botha needs to play and Smith and Herath need to perform.

 

[aussie1st]

Half of 5 is 2.5 and by the start of the 3rd ODI only 2 matches would have been played. So I've rounded it up so it is the start of the 4th ODI aka 3 matches have been played with 2 remaining. For the 7 match series it would be the start of the 5th ODI.
