So three down already eh. A ton from Mendis will do a lot of good.

 

[SL_Fan]

Fair to say that it's not looking too good now.

 

[SL_Fan]

Need a Kusal special. You can do it!

 

[Saj]

Aussies well on their way to a comfortable win.
A ton for Warner.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Khawaja is pathetic against spin.

World class performances from the defending world champions. Aussies are just awesome in ODI cricket be it India or in England!

 

[aroor]

Bailey for test series in India?

He played spinners better than Khawaja in the ODI Series.

See Warner when you actually give yourself a chance the pitch ain't so bad now is it

Anyways well done Oz played five frontline bowlers after the second game and it paid dividends. Whereas SL "think-tank" is still clueless. Playing half cricketers only creates an illusion of depth. In reality it only hampers both the batting and bowling. Batsmen become careless and not enough firepower with the ball just more options.

As for Bailey it was ridiculous that he was dropped for the last T20 WC. Same with Wade. Decent players of spin both of them because they play the sweep very well on both sides of the field.
