Not liking the inclusion of Doherty..... why didn't he play in the T20's to get adjusted to the pitch.... Strange decision would of rathered O'Keefe.


Also we are really looking to the future with that batting line up, the youngest player would have to Watson and he isn't exactly young these days.

Bollinger? Lee? not exactly the future either...

Kulasekara has hit Smith for two sixes in the 40th over..maybe he has no faith in Lakmal at the other end (11 ODIs, 1 run..only batted once though, but has a List A average of 5)


Mitch could get 7 here
