The second match between Sri Lankan lions and the kangaroos to be played at R Premdasa stadium Colombo on Aug 24 is guaranteed to be a nail biting tussle with the spinners of the host team coming to party. Kaushal and co would need all the skills to combat the Australian batting that has the capability to bludgeon the opposition bowlers lock stock and barrel. Opening slot of Warner can prove to be a thorn for the Sri Lankan team because if he gets going, the match would be soon out of the grasp of the opposition before it realizes. Bowling tight line and length could be the key for the home bowlers.
