Default Day 1 SLC XI 278 for 3

Bulletin: 1st Day (Pakistan tour of Sri Lanka, 2009)

Quote:
Pakistan began their tour of Sri Lanka the hard way as a defiant Sri Lanka Cricket XI ended at 278 for 3 on the first day of their three-day practice match. Lahiru Thirimanne and Chamara Kapugedera put on 170 for the third wicket on a rain-interrupted day at the Colts Cricket Club ground in Colombo.

SLC XI, who chose to bat, lost opener Tharanga Paranavitana with the score on 27. That brought in Thrimanne, who along with Upul Tharanga - who hit a half-century - added 78 for the second wicket.

Tharanga was dismissed by legspinner Danish Kaneria, and Paranavitana was joined by Kapudegera. The two feasted off an attack that included Abdul Razzaq, Mohammad Aamer and Kaneria. Though Pakistan captain Younis Khan employed seven bowlers, they had little effect on the rampaging batsmen and at stumps the day's honours went to the home side.

Mendis is not a threat for Pakistan. They figured him out long ago. So they really have to deal with Murali and Mendis only. Pakistan on the other hand has a good attack. This will be a good contest.

Hoping for a good come back series for Yusuf(Yohana), one of my most favorite batsmen. I remember his early days when he would hold fort the middle order tightly and hammer all sorts of bowlers out of the park at ease. Since then he has matured so much.

His batting never disappoints a cricket lover.

still risky...Ernie Terrell made the mistake of referring to Muhammad Ali as "Clay"...15 rounds of brutal punishment awaited, although most people believe Ali could have won the bout much earlier.

come on i want to see both fawad and razzaq in the final XI, and is it me or are pakistan throwing aamer into things too quickly? i know he's a talented kid but in just a month or two he's gone from an up and coming 16/17 year old prospect to their premier bowler, i hope the kid can handle this as he's a great prospect for the future of international cricket.

Wise counsel, lucky I did not end up as the Murali of Bangladesh, if I continued my career in cricket I could be Rafique to the power n (DL Roy syndrome).

well they don't have much of a choice...muhammad talha and sohail khan, both nearly as quick as aamer if not just as pacy, make shaun tait look accomplished. asif is still suspended, and the less said of akhtar the better. gul cannot carry the load all by himself, especially on pancake SC pitches. methinks, razzak, gul, aamer will shoulder the pace attack with perhaps rauf being a 4th seamer who will turn his arm over for 10 overs or so. kaneria better get in form, cuz with afridi out, there ain't no other spinner in the side.

on the other hand, i can't wait to see this new AAG attack of Asif, Aamir, and Gul. should be good times.

i don't any big name bowler has every come onto the scene at such a young age. wasim, waqar, mortaza were all 18 when they debuted. wonder how old the windies greats and mcgrath were when they got their test caps...

on other forums people have said they want muhammad talha in the team, not sure how good he is though. the main concern for aamer would be putting too much pressure on his young and still maturing body, i guess he's not bad mentally because he had been performing very well domestically before his national call up and did a good job in the 20/20 WC. btw, lots of us are looking forward to the AAG attack.

also malinga apparently isn't in the Sri Lankan squad, is this right? if so why?

i'd expect it would take at least a couple more years, the BD players are getting some ODI experience behind them but nthey're still very inexperienced test players. guys like tamim, junaid, raqibul, naeem, even shakib and others like rubel, alam etc need to get a few matches under their belt and with BD playing so few test matches it could take awhile before they develop their test game to a level where BD are competing in every test match and that's what BD need to do get get the respect that the other test nations get.

Not selecting Malinga seems like a mistake.

M Talha is quick but very raw and won't be ready for test cricket for at least a year or so, Sohail Khan is also very raw and needs time at the 1st class level.

IMO the second best young quick(not including Gul and Asif) in the current Pakistan set up has to be Wahab Riaz who this week took 7 wickets(5 and 2) in the game against AUS A.

Malinga isn't fit. He hasn't played a 4 day match in year and a half or something. He was just playing 20/20 for the past 5 months or so. He's not fully recovered from his knee injury and not fit for test cricket.

thanks for the info


Sounds a bit strange that he was fit enough to play T20s 5 months ago but still hasn't recovered to play a test match.

I would have at least played him in the ongoing 3 day game

I don't know but he himself had said that he's not fit. I think he has recovered from injury but he needs match practice before playing tests. He should be okay for ODIs hopefully def: for the 20/20.

Test Debut:
Roberts: 23+
Holding: 21+
Croft: 24+
Garner: 25+
Marshal: 19+
Walsh: 22+
Ambrose: 24+

Lillie: 21+
Thompson: 22+
Alderman: 25+
Lawson: 22+
McDermott: 19+
McGrath: 23+

For Roberts, Holding, Croft and even Garner they came in a era when ODI was just being introduced. So they had limited opportunity in that format. You break in a bowler in the limited overs first then give him a chance in the test squad. Not every one is Steyn.

Apart from the first match in IPL and the occasional brilliant deliveries, he hasn't looked great since his come back. He was bowling too many off target deliveries and looked out of rhythm most times. I think he needs more match practice before playing test matches.
