Hope the big fish is gone , SL in the drivers seat

Im thinking :

1.Nissanka
2.Mishara
3.Mendis (C)
4.Rathnayake
5.Asalanka
6.Liyanage
7.Wellalage
8.Hasaranga
9.Chameera
10.Malinga
11.Fernando

Not far off. I'd have gone with Malinga as well but they've seemingly gone with Rathnayake (for his batting probably). I'd definitely have Kamindu in there like they did, but I wouldn't open with him. Mendis can open.

Convincing win, and it's this is a good selection of players.

Only question I have is lack of Akhila Dananjaya. He is still the most potent spinner we have who could run through sides. Given we have a core of consistent spinners, he may be the one tried over Wanindu, who has an atrocious record in ODI against top sides.

Also to get a seamer all rounder is a must for 2027 World Cup. They should bring back Chamika Karunaratne
