    no that's not the point. who ever playing at no 8 is not there to do anything magical. if the top order does their job then come the final few overs we need someone who can get some quick runs. look at Aus side all of their players until no 10 can bat. there is a difference between having good bowlers who can bat and having 4 genuine bowlers who can't bat. if our bowlers can't bat then we need to adapt to that and act accordingly. still I don't think Prasanna is suited for that option. Thisara should be there.

    Agree with you.

    But, I'm fed up with these half all rounders, who can neither bat nor bowl properly.
    Think about Thisara, most of the time he bowls 3/4 overs for 30 and scores 10/15. In that contest, these sort of alrounders are useless.

    But, if you take, James Faulkner, Mitchell Starc, Nathan Coulter-Nil, they are genuine bowlers who can bat. So their selection is well justified, unlike our all rounders.

    Given all, I'll go with 7-4 (bat-bowl) combination. But I know that SL will most probable go with 7-2-2 (bat-all-bowl).
