Only a couple of days until the first test in Sri Lanka, and while most of the talk is around who will/won’t make the batting lineup, the bowling lineup too is far from set in stone. Very far.
The Australian selectors have a predicament (just for change), the batting line-up for the first test in Sri Lanka will have a new flavour to it, but just how ‘new’ will it be? This comes as a result of the crazy sacking of Simon Katich, and Steve Smith’s unlucky omission from the squad. The beneficiaries of these decisions are Phil Hughes, Usman Khawaja and Shaun Marsh.
