http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 – 3rd Test – Toss Report
The Men in Green have already earned a 1-0 lead at the ongoing 3-match Test series against Sri Lanka, and with the final outing set to kick off today, November 3, 2011, at the Sharjah Cricket Association Stadium, the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Lions-c808 will surely aim to make an imposing
comeback to their preceding rout in Dubai – in a bid to earn a stalemate at the competition.
Retaining his second game’s decision, the Sri Lankan Captain, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/TM-Dilshan-c2691, has once again won the toss and will be batting first – hoping for the Sharjah pitch to favour the side’s top order batsman, to pile up some early numbers for the Lankan
Lions.
As for the triumphant Pakistani Skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Misbah-ul-Haq-c1972, the finale comes as a vital opportunity for the side to complete their streak of wins that may hand over the eventual Test series triumph to the Men in Green.
Having already delivered an exceptional performance on the last match, Skipper Misbah will once again be leading an unchanged roster of players, kicking off with the side’s in-form opening batsmen, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Azhar-Ali-c46890,
veteran http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Asad-Shafiq-c46208 – piling up Pakistan’s top and middle order batsmen.
As for the side’s bowling department – where the team has, in fact, been the most effective, will feature the standard pace duo of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Abdur-Rehman-c41691.
On the other hand, the Sri Lankan roster comes out with some more changes, including the addition of another debutant, Kosala Kulasekara, followed by the young spinner Suraj Randiv.
At the same time, hoping to bat some early runs for the Lankan Lions, Skipper Dilshan has moved back to his usual top order position and will be opening today’s game in partnership with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/NT-Paranavitana-c2132.
As for the side’s batting veterans, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Jayan-Kaushal-Silva-c66641 will step in as the middle order players.
The Lankans are surely dealt with an imposing assignment, since the Men in Green have ranked an exceptional cricketing season since the last http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 Cricket World Cup.
