    Nathan Lyon

    Swann was a better match-winner all-round tbh, Lyon plays the pace battery side-kick role to perfection though

    Traditionally bouncier, to a lesser degree than Pallekele, but SL groundsman can pretty much turn anything into a dustbowl if they so desire

    Galle is a nice ground, deserves a decent 4th innings chase for the record books

    Lakmal mate

    Agree PEWS Matthews in at 4 makes this batting line-up look more functional tbh Solid graft, not without luck, but a very important innings from Dimuth

    Yeah was on the cards, Matthews to play a calm steadier now pls

    *Official* New Zealand tour of Sri Lanka 2019

    Mendis looking to snuff this one out quickly, NZ will have to knock him over before he gets settled and Dimuth before he tons up

    Graeme Yallop Vs Usman Khawaja

    D Hussey was averaging about 55 pretty late in his career I thought? Played a lot of CC tbf

    And again, just as NZ were right on the ropes, but the top and middle order should be able to settle and end this one comfortably, Ajaz has been hit off his lines a bit

    Nathan Lyon

    Yeah he had a shocker down under a few years back but has bowled really well just about everywhere else at some point

    Nathan Lyon

    wot, how does Tahir even enter the conversation if we are purely talking tests? Maharaj already boasts a much better record

    Nathan Lyon

    I'd like to have seen Lyon tour England, SA and NZ with the likes of early career Lakmal/Pradeep, Kulesakara, Welegedara and Eranga for company tbh

    Nathan Lyon

    Yeah can think of plenty of times around 2012-2016 in Asia where he was expected to lead the pack and dominate but failed to make an impact. Always found it fascinating for example that Warne preferred bowling at the Gabba of all venues, whereas at the SCG when it took more turn McGill would...

    Nathan Lyon

    And ironically completely out-bowled Lyon

    Graeme Yallop Vs Usman Khawaja

    David Hussey too

    *Official* New Zealand tour of Sri Lanka 2019

    Yeah both teams had the chance to put their feet on the throat of the opposition in pretty much each innings but threw key wickets away quickly, SL with a chance to finally do so today

    Wastemen etc

    I want the alpha powers that grant me custom titles before 25k tbh

    *Official* New Zealand tour of Sri Lanka 2019

    This isn't a typical wearing Galle wicket though - I've seen spicier day one decks, like a lot spicier tbh

    *Official* New Zealand tour of Sri Lanka 2019

    Was honestly my first thought

    2nd Test, Lord's, London
