He actually bowled decently in the practice game too, so maybe he's finally on the way back up to the "almost Test standard on a bouncy pitch" bowler he was before he got injured.
Cue another injury.

Fleming and McGrath make a truly rubbish commentary pair. Also 'speaking of fast bowlers, let's go down to Peter Siddle'. He hasn't been fast since about 2013.

Khawaja to have trouble with Dilruwan here. Well, not if he bowls that length.

Perera is going to get crucified. These aren't dustbowls I'm afraid

While Lyon was getting very sharp turn I'm not surprised to see that Perera's gentle amount of pure sidespin is not turning at all.

I wouldn't be surprised if Dilruwan sent down a complete buffet of pies here. I remember really struggling with my release as an offie for a few weeks after having my thumb injured batting in the exact same way as happened to him today. My thumb was actually broken, but even after it "healed" I didn't feel I was bowling right at all for a while.

Would it be distinguishable from his normal bowling? Fact is he's a rubbish home-track bully who relies on over-friendly pitches and natural variation. Anyone getting out to him this series should be ashamed.

And he's off after one over. I wonder if he asked to be pulled due to the above or it was just such a **** over that he got pulled anyway.

It's not usually pies though, just very nonthreatening.

You averaged 50 plus with the bat as well? Fair play then

Harris really wants to get out to those short balls. And those wide ones as well.

The criticism of Harris not playing much down the ground (while generally applicable to the Aus batsmen's rubbish front foot play) misses the fact that SL haven't exactly been pitching it up.

Yeah he's often fairly accurate, tends to threaten on turning pitches where he can slip the straight one in
