2nd ODI vs Sri Lanka at Colombo (RPS) – Jan 31, 2009
Match scheduled to begin at 14:30 local time (09:00 GMT)
Team news
The only change for India is the return of Sehwag, in place of Rohit Sharma. Rohit made a calm, unbeaten 25 in Dambulla and supported Mahendra Singh Dhoni well during the run-chase, but on what is expected to be a good batting track, India are almost certain to retain the services of an extra bowler to contain the hosts.
India (probable) 1 Sachin Tendulkar, 2 Virender Sehwag, 3 Gautam Gambhir, 4 Suresh Raina, 5 Yuvraj Singh, 6 Mahendra Singh Dhoni (capt & wk), 7 Yusuf Pathan, 8 Pragyan Ojha, 9 Zaheer Khan, 10 Ishant Sharma, 11 Munaf Patel.
Despite the loss in Dambulla, Sri Lanka are likely to go in with an unchanged side. Their middle order came good in the final two ODIs against Pakistan, and with their fast bowlers in good form, they’ll probably resist the temptation to make a change after one defeat.
Sri Lanka (probable): 1 Sanath Jayasuriya, 2 Tillakaratne Dilshan, 3 Kumar Sangakkara (wk), 4 Mahela Jayawardene (capt), 5 Thilina Kandamby, 6 Chamara Kapugedera, 7 Thilan Thushara, 8 Farveez Maharoof, 9 Nuwan Kulasekara, 10 Muttiah Muralitharan, 11 Ajantha Mendis.
Pitch & conditions
The pitch at the Premadasa Stadium is a dry one and is expected to favour batting. However, Mahela Jayawardene said the bowlers stood to benefit in the first ten overs under lights. Going by the recent trend, the side winning the toss may well opt to bat first.

Serena Williams, Safina to Battle for No. 1, Aussie Open Title
Serena Williams and Dinara Safina will play for the Australian Open championship, and the post-tournament No. 1 ranking, after each advanced in straight sets Thursday in Melbourne.
Williams ended a three-match losing streak against Elena Dementieva, preventing an all-Russian final with a 6-3, 6-4 win, aided by the closed roof at Rod Laver Arena as Melbourne experienced record temperatures.
A win in the final would give Williams her 10th Grand Slam singles title, and she says her focus is on Slam titles rather than the No. 1 ranking.
“Right now that would be just a bonus,” Williams told reporters. “My goal isn’t to be No. 1. My goal is to obviously win one more match here at the Australian Open.”
The result also ended a 15-match win streak for Dementieva, who won titles in her first two events of the year entering Melbourne. The Russian’s nerves were on display as she let out shrieks of frustration and talked to herself after missing opportunities.
“I think I made some double faults at bad time,” said Dementieva, who kicked in eight total, including two in a row in the second set (blowing a 3-0 lead) to hand Williams a break. “I think my first serve was not good enough for her today. I think Serena played really well today. I was maybe not aggressive enough and maybe I wasn’t playing deep enough, which allowed her to be very aggressive and dictate the game.”
Safina likewise ended a three-match losing streak against Zvonareva, breaking serve in the first game en route to a 6-3, 7-6(4) victory.
Zvonareva hit the choke button early in the match, double faulting on the second point of the contest, but got her nerves under control to break back later in the set. She served for the second set unsuccessfully, then was outplayed in the tiebreak.
“Dinara was more consistent today than I was. She served better than I did and that made the difference,” Zvonareva told reporters. “If you look at it overall, it’s my first Grand Slam semifinal. I should be satisfied.”
Safina will be satisfied with one more win and her first time atop the WTA rankings.
“Since I was growing up it has been my dream one day to be No. 1,” Safina said courtside after the match. “To play against Serena and to fight for the No. 1 is just going to be unbelievable.”

5th ODI v Australia at Perth – Jan 30, 2009
Match scheduled to begin at 13:30 local time (04:30 GMT)
Australia 1 Shaun Marsh, 2 David Warner, 3 Ricky Ponting (capt), 4 Michael Clarke, 5 Michael Hussey, 6 David Hussey, 7 Brad Haddin (wk), 8 James Hopes, 9 Mitchell Johnson, 10 Nathan Bracken, 11 Ben Hilfenhaus.
Steyn and Ntini are being rested at the tail-end of a tiring tour on which they have helped bowl South Africa to success in the Test and ODI formats. It means that the two left-arm fast men Wayne Parnell and Lonwabo Tsotsobe will make their one-day international debuts after appearing in one of the Twenty20 internationals. Jacques Kallis will also take a break, provided the batsman Vaughn van Jaarsveld proves his fitness after suffering a sprained ankle.
South Africa (likely) 1 Herschelle Gibbs, 2 Hashim Amla, 3 AB de Villiers (wk), 4 JP Duminy, 5 Neil McKenzie, 6 Vaughn van Jaarsveld, 7 Albie Morkel, 8 Morne Morkel, 9 Johan Botha (capt), 10 Wayne Parnell, 11 Lonwabo Tsotsobe.

Pakistan v Sri Lanka, Jan 20, 07:00 GMT
Team news
The bad news for Pakistan is that Shoaib Akhtar is yet again a doubtful starter for tomorrow’s game. Pakistan are likely to play three fast bowlers, with Saeed Ajmal, Shahid Afridi and Shoaib Malik sharing the spinning duties. Misbah-ul-Haq is also unwell, but though is confident of playing, he may miss out, in which case Umar Amin is likely to be included in the playing eleven.
Pakistan: Salman Butt, Khurram Manzoor, Younis Khan, Misbah-ul-Haq, Shoaib Malik (capt), Shahid Afridi, Kamran Akaml (wk), Sohail Tanvir, Shoaib Akhtar, Umar Gul, Saeed Ajmal
Jehan Mubarak hasn’t been in the best of form lately and could make way for allrounder Angelo Mathews.
Sri Lanka: Sanath Jayasuriya, Upul Tharanga, Kumar Sangakkara (wk), Mahela Jayawardene (capt), Chamara Kapugedera, Thilan Thusharsa, Angelo Mathews, Farveez Maharoof, Nuwan Kulasekara, Muttiah Muralitharan, Ajantha Mendis
Pitch and conditions
The pitch in Karachi looked on Sunday like it might be good for bowling, but has become drier and looks like a more traditionally subcontinental, batting friendly surface. The National Stadium was a batting paradise during the Asia Cup last year, with teams regularly able to chase down totals in the region of 300.
The weather forecast is perfect: sunny with the temperature expected to be in mid-twenties.
