So long as they don't just automatically replace Dev players!

Neil Pickup · 25-06-2003, 12:33 PM

Shouldn't the FC warm-up matches be three- or four-day rather than five?

What are the Sri Lanka A side / BCCSL XI going to be like?

How about a game against Sinhalese SC, Tamil Union or Nondescripts rather than SL A and BCCSL so often?

And a minor point on the Grounds - What happened to Galle? Dambulla wouldn't get a Test Match, and there are (at least) two grounds in Colombo (SSC & RPS) that deserve tests.

Sorry to be picky Reuben, but I like obsessive attention to detail

Rik · 25-06-2003, 12:40 PM

So my near 3 consecutive 50s counted for nothing. Damn.

Kiwi · 25-06-2003, 09:22 PM

I've always quite liked keeping,

Mr Mxyzptlk · 25-06-2003, 09:27 PM

Just to let everyone know that the pitches will be typical Sri Lankan pitches - flat batting strips. I can just see Cloete licking his lips and Lucky Eddie holding his sore back........

Well thanks for pointing that out , now i will make sure i will include those..

and dambulla has just been chosen as a suprise test venue

!

As for the SL'A' squad and the presidents board squad they are the squads made up of ppl that played in those teams when Nz toured s'lanka ,

As for the 3 day 4day question , i made it 5 day just for a change so that our players get more preparation !

So what's happened?

Dodgy curry from Honest Arjuna's?

Kidnapped by Tamil Separatists?

Mr Mxyzptlk · 03-07-2003, 05:22 PM

The tour is expected to be post-poned until Season 2. This should begin (along with the Dev League) on the 20th or thereabout of this month.

lord_of_darkness · 22-07-2003, 12:29 AM

Okay Sl tour to resume.... after lengthy break due to resuming clashes with the tamil tigers and the government..

Scorecard

Due to this being a pre game warmup , there wasnt anyone to commentate on the tiny game

Kiwi · 22-07-2003, 01:31 AM

Opps.. We just got thrashed by an 'A' side.
