Will have jos butler Esk value if he bats at 6 in odis
Kusal Mendis’ stats as the wicket keeper in Tests. 22 inns 878 runs 2 centuries 6 fifties 46.21 average Among all the Sri Lankan wicket keeper batters, Kusal Mendis has the highest average. #CricStatsSL

Thank god! Kusal Mendis has not given up wicket keeping in Tests. Would have been awful at 3, hope he does not bat there. #PAKvSL

The moment we lost the match was when we bowled liyanage and shanaka when 2 wickets fell early on without going to the kill
Mendis is a dumb captain, should’ve kept Shanaka for the final over but 325 was around 50 less runs than what was required. Avishka ‘no intent’ Fernando, Aracchige & Wella coming in at 7,8 & not accelerating enough post 35 overs are to blame

This is quite unfair. Pakistan has a phase where they bowled incredibly well. When discussing run rates you need to take that into account as well. Dropping kamindu will be a monumental mistake he's the best batsman in the country
Kamindu can't accelerate. You can't face 130 balls and play run-a-ball in 2026. Arachchige & Wellalage aren't finishers. Only these 5 spots of the top 8 are locks for me 1. Pathum Nissanka 2. 3. Kusal Mendis 4. Pavan Rathnayake 5. 6. Janith Liyanage 7. Dasun Shanaka 8.

Really theekshana has a hitting ability than sahan.
That 15 will be enough for Sahan Arachchige to get selected for Indian tour

Interesting to see what sl would do when Nissanka is fit. Personally I'd put kamindu at 3 and put media at 6. Drop shanaka

Whoever that dropped him after the world cup should never have anything to do with sl cricket again
5/34 is absolutely insane! 🔥 Dilshan Madushanka completely dismantled Pakistan on their own turf in Lahore. Bowling them out for 110 is a massive statement. Left-arm quick masterclass! 🇱🇰 #PAKvSL

Shanaka does this once every two years when multiple things fall exactly into place. Flat track no leggies and medium pacers He'll probably score a couple more 30s in Pakistan and not score any runs again until he plays this sort of innings again in end of 2028
This didn’t age well. 😂

Dropping kamindu will be one of the biggest mistakes we make. No batman is sl and a few batsman around the world are more skilled than he is for all format cricket Id say only Gill and brook. All he needs is that first 100 and we'll see the guy scoring 100s for fun.
Janith intrigues me b/c he does have power (from his wrists) and can score down the ground. If he can be intentful, he can be a solution at 5, even if he would be better suited for 4. I am also unsure of Kamindu’s spot in the XI. It become clear we need to max the first 10

For explanation as to why mendis is at 6. Hes got a very rare skill set of hitting spin amd brute power needed at no 6 hes also very experienced and fairly consistent. U take the responsibility of batting at 3 out of him we've seen how destructive he can be
