I did not change my words. i said it is the most settled lineup in a long time
I am saying, it's not.

Just because a side is more experienced and settled does not mean it is good
Exactly, what good is all that without performance.

Irrelevant to my initial comment. I did not talk about performance. I was just making a general observation.
Anyway we are smashing bangladesh right now so it is not like we are without performance. Everyone has contributed

Hasaranga got injured playing in LPL before the last WC. I guess they are worried it might happen again. The decision probably came from Tharanga, Sana, etc. rather than the player.

Good decision by the selectors. Anyways the Hyderabad team has likes of Philips, Head & others warming the bench. Hasaranga would have hardly got game time.

None including the current one.

Nothing becomes relevant when you keep changing the line of discussion.
Performance can't be judged by one or two series, specially against lowly placed teams. Batting lineup as a unit hasn't been convincing, three top order collapses has shown that.

So what is the most settled SL batting line-up you have seen? This is one of the best
RE: Sri Lanka Cricket Discussion Thread - Bada - 04-02-2024
Looks like DDS won't be that different from most SL captains. Kamindu generated more turn than the others, but he was taken off the attack the moment he took the wicket. Could have gone for the kill by setting a proper field for him at the time.
