Australia vs Sri Lanka

 

Today we have the final of the CB series. After sri lanka dominating game 2 with a very impressive performance, they will be looking to back it up with a final win.

 

Australia is battling several injuries with the captain Michael Clarke out with a hamstring, david warner still had a groin strain but still managed to make a hundred in the last game.

 

Also brett lee still has a broken foot.

 

Aus possible line up 1 David Warner, 2 Matthew Wade (wk), 3 Shane Watson (capt), 4 Peter Forrest, 5 Michael Hussey, 6 David Hussey, 7 Daniel Christian, 8 Brett Lee, 9 Nathan Lyon/Ben Hilfenhaus, 10 Clint McKay, 11 Xavier Doherty.

 

Sri lanka possible 1 Mahela Jayawardene (capt), 2 Tillakaratne Dilshan, 3 Kumar Sangakkara (wk), 4 Dinesh Chandimal, 5 Lahiru Thirimanne, 6 Upul Tharanga, 7 Chamara Kapugedara/Angelo Mathews, 8 Farveez Maharoof, 9 Nuwan Kulasekara, 10 Lasith Malinga, 11 Rangana Herath

 

The problem with Aus at the moment is the lack in the their bowling attack, their batting has been good and been posting good totals.

 

However Sri lanka's top 3 batters are also in great form, if they can stay in and make a quick fire 70-100 without a lost of a wicket, they will be in good stead to win the game.

 

Sri lanka will have all the confidence heading into this match and their batting will get them over the line. It sees Aus like to bat first and again post a decent total but sri lanka should have the talent to chase it down.
