The last match of the series is bound to be riveting as it will be played at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium on Sunday September 4. Pitch is slow and low; therefore the spinners would play an important role in talking wickets. Batsmen on their part need to use their feet in an impeccable manner to make runs and break the stranglehold of the bowlers. Australian bowlers particularly pacers might face tough time due to the absence of the swing and seam early on. Batsmen would need to play few deliveries to get accustomed to the pace of the pitch before launching into the attack.
