I think this series will be a lot more interesting than past Ind/SL tours.

Both sides have some decent young quick bowlers now, and SL might actually go for some seaming decks. India going in with 5 bowlers should signal some good positive cricket. Kaushal and Ashwin are both loads of fun to watch for very different reasons. Kohli as a captain will be interesting. The Bhajji and Nohit experiments, while terrible ideas, will be interesting to follow. And ofc this is Sanga's last series so that's something.

Expecting a reasonably entertaining series here. Can't even predict a winner. Definitely not going to be 0-0.

3 spinners? Kohli calm down son..

having said that, both Mishra and Bhajji can bat. Leaving out Bhuvi is lame though, the guy can bowl in non-swinging conditions ffs.

Nice prediction.

Don't know what to expect from Bhajji and Mishra here. Most likely loads of darts, half trackers and half volleys.

Yadav over Bhuvi I'd understand...but Aaron?

Don't really see this attacking taking 10 wickets on a Day 1/Day 2 pitch. But then again, I'm only really worried by Sanga, Mathews and Mubarak in the SL batting lineup.

450

Silva and Dimuth are pretty good too.

Also, no Pujara

What was the point of the warmups? Pujara looked pretty good and he got retired not out and isn't even playing. How is that fair?
