Are we talking ODIs or Tests? I assume ODIs. In ODIs our pace attack is a typical non-Pakistani Asian attack: unassuming, not quick, but gets the job done. I'd rate it better than SL's pace attack, especially if Malinga is neutralized. In ODIs our spin attack may or may not be better. In Tests, its obvious that SL is leagues better cuz Herath alone has more wickets than our entire bowling lineup put together.

That being said, I expect to really push the Lankans in SL, possibly even entertain an outside shot at winning the ODI series, and I'd expect us to be on par at home. Call me a bit bullish.
