THIRD TEST: SINHALESE SPORTS CLUB GROUND

Let's not beat about the stunted flora: Sri Lanka is a pissweak Test team, and yet they are belting us.

SECOND TEST: GALLE INTERNATIONAL STADIUM

Rod Marsh has given up on Australia playing spin on the subcontinent. In other words, he's belatedly come to the same conclusion we came to at least 5 years ago. But while we are boneheads on a blog with rock all influence, Marsh is an Aussie cricket grandee and instead of an exasperated "What more can we do" should have the odd idea. If I could offer Rod a word in his shell-like, I would suggest we win the toss and bat first.

FIRST TEST: PALLEKELE INTERNATIONAL CRICKET STADIUM

Interesting that Australia have been filth on the under-continent, but haven't lost a Test in Sri Lanka since 1999.
