the Nishan dude they’ve selected reminds me of Nissanka himself a few years ago

maybe they want Nissanka as a white ball specialist for now and focus on that?
Probably but 15 test innings 537 runs at 38 Average with 5 -50's & 100 not bad but yes you are right 1700 runs in white ball cricket good Int'L stats

Sri Lankas best chance in a while. I know they're battling but I wouldn't be surprised by all 3 series results.

13 (?) man squad I'd love to see:

Latham
Conway
Williamson
Phillips
Mitchell
Blundell
Smith
Sodhi
Henry
Southee
Tickner


Ravindra (can bat 3 depending on conditions - everyone drops down one & Sodhi misses out)

Shipley (bowling cover - hopefully Tickner isn't injured as would be sameness in attack)
 

ataraxia

International Coach
Rachin
Conway
Williamson
Latham
Mitchell
Blundell
Phillips (sorry Will)

Then whoever four quicks, preferably not all the same, and preferably one of Smith/Shipley.
