The tour of Srilanka by kangaroos in all set to begin from today. Srilanka are playing this series straight away from the disastrous tour against England. While Australia are coming after a victory in a tri nation series against South Africa and Caribbean’s. Match is expected to be a lackluster one, considering the current form of both the nations. Aussies are stern favorites for the match In 1983,Australia first toured Srilanka In which Aussies won comfortably.
Live ScoreCard Below
Australia skipper has already picked IX. Two spinners are names in the side. Two Spinners are Nathon Lyon ans Steve O’Keefe. Both the spinners are considered as Duo in Sydney Sixers team. Coincidentally Steve Smith is the skipper of Sydney Sixers. Steve O’Keefe can also bat. He is the part of sydney sixers for considerable amount of time peter Nevill will don the Gloves. David Warner is also set to play despite all the speculations about his fitness. Either Shaun Marsh or Usman Khawaja will open with Warner, Warner is unlikely to come at NO3 considering his record while opening the batting. Smith might not push himself down to 4. Smith is expecting a spinning track similar to which they got for the practise match. Aussies think tank is considering Rangana Herath as the major threat.
SriLanka
Despite of his poor form, Mathews is definitely the most valuable player in Srillaka Currently. Off late he is struggling with fitness issues .Hope he will play with full fitness in today’s match. Two of their main frontline bowlers are suspended due to suspect action. Vishwa fernando is likely to make debut. He can be a surprise element for Australia. Nuwan Pradeep And Suranga Lakmal will share the onus of leading Pace Attack
