I really think Paranavitana ought to go. He has a solid game that's frustrating to bowl to, but I just tire of a batsman simply not scoring while he's at the crease, regardless of what the opposition is doing.
Usually you're forgiving of inconsistent players when on their day they can produce something special, but with Paranavitana, whether or not he hangs around usually just means whether he scores nothing or a slow 40-odd. What concerns me most about him is the feeling that we may have seen the best he can do already, and it's just not that great.

Apart from in England.
He is such a good player though. How bad would they be without him?

Agree that Samaraweera deserves a game. Would be counter productive to bring him back though if the reason to leave him out was to give the youngsters a game.
Chandimal would do alright imo. If Dilshan can make it at test level then Chandimal definitely can.

agree 100%.
players aren't robots ffs. Confidence, morale, attitude play a huge role in the performance of a player (mental side of things are just as important).
most of the Sl batsmen threw their wickets away on a middle-east batting pitch....(3rd time on the trot)

seems like the day sanga and jaya retire sl will return to being a minnow test nation.
wi are basically a minnow. take chanderpaul & gayle out and they are as bad as bangers.

not sure about that. they did not have gayle when they drew a series with pakistan. and chanderpaul did not play a starring role in it, as far as i can remember.
