I can see Sri Lanka's spin attack turning the ball game into their favour. The hosts.

im watching the stream its great

Ricky Ponting the only member of this Australian team who has played previously in Galle

Clarke out LBW after original decision was overturned

They just dropped Ponting

121 for 4 ... another long summer coming up?

Huges has to go, he is terrible, if were not going to select Marsh put Paine in the side, or even try Hussey or Khawaja at the top of the order just get rid of HUGHES!

Cicjose · August 31, 2011, 08:12:09 PM

if you think hughes is the biggest problem you are delusional

I would love for Hussey to open but from what I have seen he is the best at batting with the tail.

I agree. Hughes has a go. Certainly shouldn't be dropped.
Michael Clarke is shower and way older than Hughes..
Khawaja is a great prospect though 8)
Don't know much about Lyon.. can someone fill me in?

Lyon is a twenty20 player, not really a test player.

Took a lot of wickets in the big bash but thats about it.

Khwaja didnt do much better

100 in his last match? Give the kid a break.
Yea think we need to decide on who our test spinner is going to be..
Decision needs to be made.
