Nothing to do with age, it's the experience at the top level, actually the lack of it. Three ODIs, 3 wickets and very expensive against India and Pakistan. He wouldn't make a difference on these flat pitches.

And what? he is still 8 years older than pathirana. He has had much more experience in bowling long spells in list a and fc unlike Pathirana. He would not be feeding wides and he can bowl at the start of the innings. Madushan also bowled only 2 overs against India lol. Using that is very flimsy but then again, thats all your 'arguments' LOL

Whatever SL fast bowlers can achieve, you feel like it's going to come only in the new ball spell. They are struggling to strike in middle overs. Can't control damage in death overs. There's a long way to go.

Is he talking about RPS? Playing more games is good, especially in NSL 4-day.

Quote:I mean, in our Domestic Club Tournament is something that we don’t have control of because the Clubs do play to their strengths and all that. So, the NSL Tournament is something that is in our control, which we started last year, and we played on good wickets. This season also, what we are planning is to play in our main stadiums on good wickets so that bowlers, batters, and everyone get challenged on those conditions. But that is a process that just started last year and that’ll take some time to adapt and, you know, get everyone to play in those conditions and see how it is. We’re going to have more games as well this year in the NSL. So that’s part of a long-term plan as part of the development.
