Toss: Sri Lanka have won the toss and elected to field Mathews: ‘We will bowl first. Dinesh Chandimal and Shaminda Eranga are back in the squad. Senanayake sits out.’ Ross Taylor: ‘I would have bowled first with all the rain around. It is a totally different wicket. We need to start well. Tom Latham comes in and he will open the batting. BJ Watling is in the team.’ Pitch Report: It is not a normal Sri Lankan wicket. The pitch is a bit darker and there are some patches of grass. The pitch has been under covers for the last two days. The bowlers will get a lot of assistance and the team that wins the toss will want to bowl first.

| Ministry of Home Affairs clears resumption of India-Pakistan bilateral series Posted: 30 Oct 2012 05:52 AM PDT
Pakistan are expected to play three One-Day Internationals and two Twenty20 Internationals between December 25 and Januray 7, when England will be back home for Christmas, according to reports. The venue for the bilateral series against Pakistan are Ahmedabad, Chennai, Bangalore, New Delhi and Kolkata. A few days ago, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) confirmed that it is still awaiting the tour itinerary from its Indian counterpart for the much-anticipated bilateral series between the two countries later this year.
PCB Chairman Zaka Ashraf told reporters that the BCCI was expected to send the final schedule for the series which is to be played in two months’ time in India. The BCCI has said that Pakistan will play three one-day internationals and two Twenty20 matches on the short tour that begins in the last week of December and ends in the first week of the new year. It is the first bilateral series between the two countries after the Mumbai terror attacks in November 2008. The arch-rivals have not played a series since Pakistan’s tour of India in 2007. The Indian and Pakistani cricket teams have only met in international tournaments since 2007. “I had enquired from the BCCI officials during the recent ICC meeting in Colombo about the final schedule and they said they would send it soon. So we are also awaiting it. But obviously they will announce it as it is their home series,” Ashraf said.

| Gavaskar fears for ‘vulnerable’ India ahead of series against England Posted: 30 Oct 2012 04:51 AM PDT
Gavaskar said the home side were going into the four-Test series against the world’s number two team with a “wobbly” batting line-up and a weak-looking pace attack, with spin being the lone encouraging factor. “Amazingly the situation is eerily similar to the tours of England and Australia last year,” Gavaskar wrote in his column in the Mumbai-based Mid-DAY newspaper, referring to two humiliating 4-0 routs suffered by the Indians. “Both England and Australia were vulnerable and there for the taking, but India messed it up and after the first Test of both the series just did not look as if they would win a day leave alone five days of a Test match.
“India today are in the same vulnerable position that England and particularly Australia were in 2011.” India ceded the world number one Test ranking to England in 2011, losing 4-0, with Australia repeating the dose in the series that started in December last year and ended in January 2012. With England and Australia touring in a busy home season, Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s men are hoping to make amends for their embarrassing reverses now they are playing in familiar conditions. But Gavaskar said the retirement of Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman, and Sachin Tendulkar’s recent poor form, had weakened the famed Indian middle-order. “With the openers too not quite in form, the batting is looking wobbly,” wrote Gavaskar, the first batsman in history to score 10,000 Test runs. “The settled air (in the Indian ranks) that was there at the beginning of 2011 is not there and that is why this is a great chance for England.” Tendulkar, 39, the world’s leading run-maker, has gone 25 innings without a hundred in Tests since making 146 against South Africa in Cape Town in January 2011. In the bowling department, Gavaskar said pace spearhead Zaheer Khan lacked support with the new ball, leaving spinners Ravichandran Ashwin and Pragyan Ojha to shoulder the burden of bowling England out twice. “Ashwin is a quick learner and Ojha is very consistent,” he wrote. “On pitches where there is some turn they could prove tricky customers.” The return of Kevin Pietersen had made the tourists stronger, Gavaskar said, adding that new captain and opener Alastair Cook could play a vital role in England’s campaign. “Cook will be the steadying factor. He has a good record in India and if he can bat like he did in his debut series in 2006, the final frontier could just be a small hurdle for England,” Gavaskar wrote. England, who last won a Test series in India under David Gower in 1985 and have described the forthcoming series as the “final frontier”, opened their tour on Tuesday with a three-day match against India ‘A’ at the Brabourne stadium in Mumbai. The tourists will play another three-day game in Mumbai and a four-day match in Ahmedabad before Tests in Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Kolkata and Nagpur. The tourists, who will also play two Twenty20 matches after the Tests, will go home for Christmas before returning in the New Year for a five-match one-day series.

| Top teams set eye on on ODI Championships Table Posted: 30 Oct 2012 04:44 AM PDT
Currently, only 17 ratings points separate the top six sides, with England and South Africa on equal points at 121. However, Alastair Cook’s side is rated above South Affrica by a fraction of a point, while India with 120 points are behind the Proteas by only a rating point. Four-time world champion Australia (113) trail India by seven points. Sri Lanka are placed at fifth spot with 108 rating points.
1992 world champion Pakistan are further down at number six, four ratings points behind the Lankans, and New Zealand are on 74 ratings points. But with six top ranked ODI sides, along with the West Indies and New Zealand, gearing up to play a number of ODIs, mostly in the new year, the ranking table could witness a lot of changes before the April 1 cut-off date. The team, which would finish as number one on April 1 cut-off date, will collect a cheque of USD 175,000 along with a Shield, while the team that would finish second will get USD 75,000. Sri Lanka will have to win the series against New Zealand starting on November 1 at Pallekele to stay ahead of Pakistan in fifth place. A 3-2 series win for New Zealand will mean Sri Lanka will slip to 103 ratings points, one behind Pakistan, while a 5-0 series win for Sri Lanka will put it just three ratings points behind fourth-ranked Australia. In January 2013, Australia will host Sri Lanka for a five-ODI series, England will play five ODIs in India, and New Zealand will travel to South Africa for three ODIs. ODI series taking place from February-March include Australia vs West Indies (in Australia, five ODIs), New Zealand vs England (in New Zealand, three ODIs) and South Africa vs Pakistan (in South Africa, five ODIs). After the Sri Lanka-New Zealand series, Bangladesh will host the West Indies for a five-ODI series. These series would be the countdown to the final edition of the ICC Champions Trophy. In June 2013, defending champion Australia will be looking for a treble, having won the previous two editions of the tournament (2006 and 2009). But Australia will face stiff challenge from former champions South Africa (1998), New Zealand (2000), India and Sri Lanka (2002), and West Indies (2004), who would also be looking to lift the trophy for a second time by winning the final edition of the event.

| Kevin Pietersen is cricket’s Muhammad Ali: Viv Richards Posted: 30 Oct 2012 01:20 AM PDT
Richards, who won seven Tests in India with the great West Indies teams of the 1970s and 80s, finds a similarity between Pietersen and the world’s greatest boxer in terms of their behaviours. “Kevin is a good player but talks himself into some issues. In the old days we had Muhammad Ali the way he spoke and acted, people wanted to see him knocked out. But he was a great boxer,” Richards was quoted as saying by The Sun.
“Now I’m not saying KP is exactly like Ali, that man was the greatest. But you can see through his behaviour that people want to take him down that little bit more. But because he has the X-factor he can respond to it. “Looking from afar, he’s his own worst enemy but you can’t deny how good he is to watch and how important he is to England,” the West Indian great added. Pietersen, who was chucked out of the team during the lost Test rubber at home against South Africa for sending unflattering messages to the rival camp about then captain Andrew Strauss and other team members, has made his return to the England fold in the ongoing tour of India.
