Yea thats in regards to bowling but how about theyre batting why not give Warnapura, Vandort, or other guys a chance they always persist with guys like Silva and Kapugedara i dont understand it.

Feed Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Skipper Jayawardena rules out batting changes Sri Lanka captain Mahela Jayawardene has resisted calls to revamp his misfiring middle order ahead of Tuesday’s fourth one-day international against India in Colombo. More... Skipper rules out batting changes 25 August 2008 Mahela Jayawardene drives on the up during his innings of 94 in the third ODI defeat Buy this photo Sri Lanka captain Mahela Jayawardene has resisted calls to revamp his misfiring middle order ahead of Tuesday’s fourth one-day international against India in Colombo. After winning the first encounter of the five-match series by eight wickets in Dambulla last Monday, the hosts slumped to defeats in the next two - all out for a paltry 142 in the second match and then managing only 204 in their pursuit of 238 in the third on Sunday. Jayawardene has been under pressure to drop the likes of Chamara Silva and Tillakaratne Dilshan in favour of Mahela Udawatte and Malinda Warnapura. But it seems the skipper does not plan to tinker with the batting line-up. "Every cricketer goes through a bit of hiccups in one or two games," he said. "But these are quality players. I am sure they will find form. We just need to handle these situations better." India can now clinch the series with another victory on Tuesday, and Jayawardene admits his team’s predicament is far from ideal. "Trailing 1-2 is a tough position to be in, but it is a good challenge for us," he said. "You don’t want to lose a series while playing at home. "We have analysed our mistakes and we now know where we are going wrong. Hopefully we can get it right." Link to comment

He is incapable of scoring quickly. Chamara Silva is a very good batsman. They do lack strength in depth (that's why Jayasuriya still gets a game) but unlike India or Australia, they also have a much smaller pool of players to choose from. Link to comment
