Sri Lanka name their 15-man squad (CB Series, 2007-08)
- Thread starter Pata
- Start date
considering the Australian pitch statistics i think it is better to have more fast bowlers than spinners cos most f da tym they are fast pitches....and does not help spinners....annyway since murali z one of a extraordinary spinner who can spin any pitch in da world, he will do wotever his normal syles in aussy pitches ( n datz a fact ). true enough about the unfair judgment made on malinga bandara and it seems dat the selectors have forgotton da service he rendered to our team previously..
And also it z good dt lot f young faces comin to action despite having da same old team where the new commers also can gain sum experiences for their future benefit...n we should find young talents n train them inorder to replace the retiring players..

remember the world cup semi final? when everybody said tharanga was crap and he should be dropped..he came up with a half century going mare than run-a-ball
http://content-sl.cricinfo.com/wc2007/engine/current/match/247505.htmlhttp://
so u cant say that he may not fire..
also they are giving chances to youngsters like ishara, dilruwan and welagedara.
u cant give everybody a chance can u?
What????Their going with out malinga bandara?Last time i checked murali did'nt take more than 12 wickets in 2 test matches in Australia,Malinga is a good bowler and a good batsmen and I think going with inexperienced bowlers would pay,bad decision selectors,as usuall...
Thats the only half century he got other than the ones against India and England for the whole series.. He struggling for form ever since..
Here You Go... Only managed one 50 in 11 matches.. So can you justify his inclusion to this side??

You can't give everybody a chance but you have to give the chance for right players..That's what i am so worried about.. No one wud like to loose a series just because selectors have messed with team selection..

Pata said:Selectors going nuts again.. Only one specialist spinner in the squad.. and 6 fast menWhat would happen if murali get injured?? Absolutely bullshit.. Remember last time we played in Australia?? When Murali got injured, we played Malinga Bandara as the specialist spinner and he became the 2nd highest wicket taker in that series..He hasn't even made it to the squad this time..
When analyzing recent performances Oz batsmen are troubled by leggies rather than offspinners.. Murali never had good time in downunder.
How come Upul Tharanga earned a place?? He even failed in the recent domestic series.. Sana not in good form..Tharanga out of form..who will open the batting? Dilruwan Perera is an option but he is not a genuine batsmen. so we cant rely on him 100%..
WHEN WILL SLC SELECTORS LEARN FROM THEIR MISTAKES??
We are Playing with India that why i think 6 Fast men are used.I agree with you malinga bandara should in the side but IF you look at how many times he is in side and came with out playing game so considering that its better not selection than selected and frustating him
Only one 50 in 3 domestic matches..If that single 50 convinces selectors why didn't Mubarak get a chance in this squad?? He also could have opened the batting..He was the second highest scorer after Sanga..And he has lot of experience playing in Australia..And what about Mahela Udawatte??.. he too can score quickly..

MUBARAK? u gotta b kiddin me
he's the worst batsman i've seen ..he can never take responsibility..always get out when u need an innings from him..
mahela udawatta is a good consideration..but in australia?? against india too? i dont think so..tha'll be like putting him to the deep end ..
Machan thing is this..What if murali got injured?? Whos the backup bowler..You can't bowl murali throughout the series.. Hes too old for that now..Have to reduce his work load.. Why can't SL look beyond murali.? hes not gonna play forever..Why on earth do you need 6fast bowlers? 5 is more than enough...

I know Mubarak is crap. But considering the recent form Upul is worse than him..He can use the long handle.. Well if you are giving younger players a chance is there a better series than this to test the character of a man.. I can give you plenty of examples of Sri Lankan players who played their debut ODI against Ozs and turned out to be match winners for Sri Lanka.. So why not give a chance to young Udawatte too
Ex-1: Sanath Jayasuriya (ODI Debut:Australia v Sri Lanka at Melbourne, Dec 26, 1989)
Ex-2: Chamara Silva (ODI Debut:Sri Lanka v Australia at Colombo (RPS), Aug 26, 1999)
Ex-3: Chamara Kapugedara (ODI Debut: Australia v Sri Lanka at Perth, Jan 29, 2006)
Ex-4: Murali (Test debut: Sri Lanka v Australia at Colombo (RPS), Aug 1992)
Ex-5: Lasith Malinga (Test debut Australia v Sri Lanka at Darwin, Jul 1-3, 2004)
etc...
You cant put a young player for just one series and if he fails drop him and put another one.. You have to keep faith in him..Eventually he would deliver the goods..That's the right way to go

I dont think you cant see murali resting and another spinner playing when he is fit its never gona happen unless we are plce pretty in final.
Its some thing selectors have to look but i dont think they have guts to sit murali on bench if they do that and Sl defeat all will blame for that that the sri lankan Mantality
machan good selection but we need a full time supporting spinner 4 murali... & machan tharanga is charter 2 team like australia & india..
