Just read that Chandimal has been released from hospital and will probably be playing so I would just swap with Dhananjaya from my original team..

Rahul out of the first test now. Kind of becoming a joke how often he gets injured. Opening spot as a whole seems to be cursed.

Dhawan and Pujara will probably open now with Rohit at 5.

It's been mental how often India have had opening batsmen injured over the last eighteen months. Even the reserves have been injured a few times.

Predictions for the series:

Result: India 2-1
Leading run scorer: Kohli
Leading wicket taker: Herath
Surprise performer: Rohit
Biggest disappointment: Umesh Yadav. Feels about time he regresses back to rubbish
Other predictions: Mendis will do well, Mathews's poor run to continue

I'm hoping all of Karanaratne, Mendis, De Silva and Dickwella have some success with the bat. Love watching them all for different reasons

Gunathalika deserves a run too


Theyl never drop him but I'm pretty meh on Matthews now. Can totally see him tailing off at the back end of his career and averaging around 40 by retirement

I'd have opened with Pujara and brought rohit in tbh. Not convinced about Mukund at all.

Hardik debuting is interesting too. Hope he goes well.
Yes but Rohit doing well means it would be tougher to keep him out of the mix in future series, whereas with Mukund even if he does reasonably well he's gonna have to sit out when Vijya/Rahul get fit.
