They'll have Malinga (although for how long and how well he'll bowl is pretty unknown)

and then the minnows..

india is just ahead of bangladesh...
Afghan attack would be in top 8 imo for this tournament.

Sunny G reckons a 40 odd for Raina here would be more helpful than a 100 against Afghan in next warmup game....:laugh:

Glad to see that our fielding is back up to scratch.

Now if we can give that to the test side too...

in these conditions i'd back irfan/wahab/rahat/afridi/yasir over kula/prasad/lakmal/herath/senanyake.
Those aren't going to be the attacks tbf. If Sri Lanka pick Malinga/Kula/Mathews/Herath/Snenanananananananananana then they've got the fourth best attack imo.

Pakistan's lack of a proper 5th bowler kills them.

U19 12th Man
2 of todays warm ups are well underway. Dilshan and Sanga are doing well, NZ struggled against SL's big three and if they continue like this throughout the cup they will be hard to beat regardless of their bowling attack.

Guptill going very well after a couple of quick wickets

Not Terrible

SL can even carry Prasad with their allrounder strength. Specialist bowler for four overs a game.

Panyanananana is a decent bowler but we're in danger of getting rolled by Elton John here.

Is anyone watching this on a telly and able to say what's going on?
