Will Covid hit the Aus squad?
I assume the Flange is out for T2?

Changes? Haze for Starc, or leave things as they are?

Haze or Boland for Starc.
Will be interesting to see the pitch served up for Galle Mk2. Version1 was a designed for MuMu deck.

Same centre wicket block so the pitch might be quite similar!

It's a Sri Lankan pitch, even the toss will spin. Ramesh Mendis and Embuldeniya have to improve. Both were crap with a bad ball every over or 2. To think that they're missing Dilruwan Perera.

Ha! Sangakkara had that happen that (a second toss) once in a world cup didn't he? Or was it Dhoni to someone else?

It would be a real shocker of a pitch if a captain considered calling “edges”…

I reckon we will. Green can bowl half the 10 overs per innings reserved for the quicks.

Hopefully we can avoid defeat in this one after our surprise result in T1. Good for our progress in the WTC.

As much as I hate to say it, NoShow for Koo would not be the worst move by Aus.
Lengthen the batting and add another spinner.
We are highly unlikely to need anymore pace than 2nd and Snot.

Starc playing in the end. It may have given him a jab in the ribs. I really think they only do this to freak Langer out. McDonald is a funny guy.
So we won the toss and are batting.

Decent nut from Mendis removes Ooze for 37.
Aus have moved onto 2-76.

Mendis beats Shrapnel a mile down the wicket but Dickswella fluffs the chance.

After more than a decade of snapping at his heels, I think Tweak's between-balls routine is now measurably more annoying than Rafa"s
