Australia might Bring in changes for Last test
Australia vs Sri lanka 3rd test Live cricket streaming
Live cricket Streaming: Australian captain, said that visitors have to ring the changes in order to improve their abysmal record in Asia after they crumbled to a humiliating 229-run defeat against Sri Lanka lose three match Test series 2-0 in Galle on Saturday (Aug. 6).
Australia have now lost eight games in a row in Asia. Their focus was sub par performances put up a poor show by the batsmen: Only Smith scored a fifty so far for this series in Australia, while the likes of Joe Burns Usman Khawaja and are engaged in mediocrity.
In turn, Smith said the Australian think tank should consider bringing in fresh faces to resurrect their floundering fortunes. Shaun Marsh, who made his Test debut in Pallekele century in 2011 and Mosies Henriques, all-round from New South Wales, may be the ultimate test for the playing XI Colombo (SSC):
"Yes, it certainly should be looked at," said Smith. "If there are guys that can play spin well in these conditions, then it's certainly got a chance. It's been too long now, I think it was 15 or 16 years [17] games because we've won the game in the subcontinent, so what we are doing is not working. Thus, some of the changes yeah, that might be a need. "
"The boys are a bit down at the moment and fair enough, it was a tough series so far, we have been outplayed in the test match, the mood is not great at the moment. We were a little disappointed, but we still have plenty to play for Colombo », Smith - said: "We've got to try and prove to ourselves and the public that we can play in those conditions.
"I thought the first innings is very disappointing, I thought that we were a little more proactive, we saw some cleaner shots, some reverse sweeps, guys using their feet to about 180 I thought, probably, around 200 in the last innings of this game or each innings of this game was probably dancing. So, we saw a little active thinking and innovative thinking to find a way today, we just could not do it for a long time, though.
"They've got some quality bowlers in their team that gets the ball run and then a sharp skid as well, I guess, when the ball does not run into the kind of dramatic plays in your mind that you can just play one outdoors. We haven »T with its good enough, and we need to find ways to cover only the ball that does not spin. Most of the time, if it spins, it spins too far, we should not forget that takes up significantly, and if it does not run and I hope it spins past the stumps and the outer edge. "
Sri Lankan trio Rangana Herath, Lakshan Sandakan and Dilruwan Perera combine together to take 35 wickets in the series. On the other hand, Nathan Lyon had modest numbers nine wickets at an average of 30.88. Jon Holland, a slow left-arm bowler Orthodox, who made his Test debut in Galle, ended up with only one wicket in the game.
Smith admitted that Australian spinners failed to verify whether the conditions subcontinent: "They did not get many wickets." Smith said that the spin duo. "We need to find ways to bowl differently to how we run our bowl Australia as well. You look at the Sri Lankan spinners, a subcontinent spinners, they bowl a side seam on the ball, where they can go up and down with their speed and trajectory. The ball reacts differently. One ball to go straight and accelerates out of the wicket, one ball spins, and you do not know which one is which.
"I do not think Bowlers actually know that one either. Australia traditionally, we get taught to get the ball over the top and Australia. I think that you need to get the form to try and make the batsman to drive and shape in the air. However, I think it's exactly the opposite of the subcontinent: they side with the seam too hard to resist, and our spin Bowlers must continue working in that direction. It's a completely different way to the way we bowl bowling in Australia, "he thought.
However, he praised the efforts of Mitchell stârc and Josh Hazlewood, who have joined forces again and again to pursue the procedure at the top of the range.
"I thought all the fast bowlers did a very good job for us in this game, but to be fair, it should not be taking their wickets: It must be our spinners, it gets the job done. Jon Holland's first Test, he was obviously a bit nervous, and you can justify it a little. spinners need to find a way to get wickets and keep the runs dry surfaces. We went more than four an over both Test matches, so we've got to find a way to get wickets spinners these conditions, "Smith said.
Tom Latham's second consecutive ton,
Tom Latham's second consecutive ton aganist Zimbabwe
Martin Guptill and Kane Williamson half-centuries along with Tom Latham's second consecutive ton, New Zealand to gain advantage ahead of the second Test against Zimbabwe on one Bulwayo Saturday (August 6).

In front of a deserted stadium early, Martin Guptill and Tom Latham, New Zealand openers, took command of the proceedings after the visitors elected to Bat.

Three overs later off spinner John Nyumbu the attack, and there was a spin on the other end as well. The duo managed to bowl, unhealthy conditions, but can unsettle the Duo.
With spin operation, the roles are reversed as batsmen. While Latham kept working the ball around for singles, Guptill batted out 22 dot deliveries out of 26 balls once Cremer Nyumbu came from or around the bowl. While Latham played chanceless innings, Guptill has proposed tough to Peter Moor - by debutante wicketkeeper for 31 more. Barring that, it was easy going couple, as they rode to a comfortable 101 for no loss at lunch. The second team was 50 for a little work, but it comes without a lot of trouble for the visitors.

Even the team's second session proved more effective than the first. With the breeze blowing across the ground growing stronger in the afternoon, Bowlers found a little support. Damage, or at least in trouble, could have a much better had they Zimbabwe Bowlers apply.

With the ball coming slowly to the batsman at the wicket willow-wielders rely on playing their shots. Blocks of six by Guptill off Cremer throws to complete 41 more, there has not been any aggressive intentions displayed by visitors.

They continued to work the ball around gaps and ensured that Zimbabwe does not bowl maiden overs. In the process, both batsmen reached their places. While Latham brought his second century of the series, the captain notched his 21th Test fifty.

He did that earlier in the tournament - hammering an unbeaten 54-ball 108 against the same opposition. However, he scored a duck when the two sides meet next time.
Bravo and Co. are not smart enough to focus only on Gayle: Kumar Sangakkara and Chadwick Walton has been reached with the bat, while Andre Russell's aggression with both Bat and ball can knock down any opposition in a moment.
Knight Riders have the momentum with them. Tallawahs are aggressive, dangerous, power-packed and keep a mental edge over their opponents with a 2-0 record this edition.

Mathews was the axis around which the hosts build their second innings. Kusal and Dhananjaya de Silva (34) also essayed useful hands up Dilruwan and Herath (26) stitched a vital 61 position down low to put the hosts on top. Stârc then ripped through the final three wickets quickly, but not before Sri Lanka took their lead past 400.
At the fag end of the day, Herath enticed Burns steps down the road, but he could only cover short positions essay drive straight forward. Lyon, the nightwatchman, will survive as long as he was released from the back of a fine reflex catch taken by Kaushal Silva at silly point. Khawaja then left alone for a harmless slider from Dilruwan that tipped off- stump Sri Lankans sent into wild celebrations.
It was Lyon's inability to plug away from the channel off, it does not help that the visitors' second innings trial. Jon Holland, a slow left-arm Orthodox BOWLER, was below par. However, stârc continues to plow away and joining the points piled up pressure on the batsmen: Left-arm Pacer also generated appreciable reverse swing and finished up his first wicket haul in 10 Tests.
It was in the morning session, when the game is titled strongly in favor of the hosts. Herath and Dilruwan bowled accurately and to take control of a multitude window, because visitors are united in a lower score.
