The usual culprits, Amla & du Plessis, at it again! (Not that anyone cares about SA vs NZL right now :P)

Never heard of du Plessis before he came to play us at Adelaide but was a stand out there. He strikes me as a player very similar to M. Hussey.

There's this flair about him that reminds me of Kevin Pieterson, weird

I can still see Lanka losing this one, even though the Aussies they are playing against are even weaker than before LOL

Dude, they'll find a way to lose, somehow. hahah.

But I seriously hope Lanka can pull this one off, it would be awesome to see a change!

Can't believe Khawaja was dropped after one game. We needed someone to anchor the innings yesterday.
I'm getting a little tired of Mickey Arthur and his rotation policy.

Couldn't agree more. You can't just kick someone out based on a run out.

I agree as well.
Another thing i want to know is why warner isn't in the team. They keep on saying they are preparing for 2015 world cup but they need to be winning now as well. And unless warner gets struck down with injury i dont see why who couldn't be part of that team, hes not old.
They need him in the team.
Warner and finch should open and hughes coming in at third.

I think warner's resting, which I don't mind, because I agree that they do need to test out the debutants sooner or later. When clarkey comes back into the side, finch should leave imo, he's really having trouble adjusting to odi's

Yeah actually makes sense about warner. Finch i reckon could make it in one dayers but at the moment he is struggling.

Anyone heard anything about haddin, is he going to be able to play on friday or is wade going to play?

Lol would he be able to? i have never seen him keep

I think we would be a much better side if we had warner, finch (playing well), clarke, hughes and wade in the team. And have wade come in at 5.
