Dilhara and Thisara to open the bowling and Chandimal to open the batting?


The Sri Lankan selectors are looking at giving Dilhara Fernando and Thissara Perera a go and leaving out Nuwan Kulesekera and Nuwan Pradeep in tomorrows final test against pakistan.Nuwan Pradeep is more likely to left out as Mahela indiacted in a recent column that Pradeep need to be more consistent in line and length when bowling at international level. 


In batting,selectors would be thinking about bringing Chandimal in to the side in place of Paranavithan who struggle in the series so far.It is Interesting to see whether selectors would give Chandimal a chance in the top of the order as test team is searching for a opener for a while now. Chandimal considers as a middle order player will have to adjust to playing against new ball if he is going to bat at the top.When considering that Dilshan also opening the batting after playing as a middle order batsman for many years and being successful giving Chandimal a go is worthwhile. 

The Final decision on the team will be taken after looking at the pitch.
