Just a side question

Would this be one of the most entertaining tri-nation series ever?

Some great games and battles, plus close finals contest

I think Sri Lanka have a lot of momentum coming out of their lower order effort. They'll be hard to beat in this match

I pipped you this time. But yes. This Tri Series has been a good advertisment for bringing back the Tri-Series which should never have been scrapped in the first place.

Please merge

I think your approach is cheating too. At least Ian continues to contribute to the forum instead of just looking to be first.

By the way guys, Asia Cup starts next Sunday, someone should start a thread about the first match soon

Over to Warner to show he can be consistent, has been getting better with a 1 in 2 fail ratio for his last 5 matches.

Hearing David Warner is in doubt for Adelaide with a groin injury. They were saying he wasn't fielding cause of a headache but later said something about a groin injury

I'm excited about the Asia Cup because of Pakistan and having them play Sri Lanka and India in Asia

Would you risk Warner, I wouldn't not when we are 1-0 up. I would gamble on Forrest being able to do the job, and give Warner 2 extra days off to get ready for Thursday!

So you're saying you'd:

A - rest a bloke coming off a 160.

And

B - Concede the match.

Genius.

No, I am saying I would not take ANY risk...lets be honest as much as it is a final series...the bigger series is the West Indies tour...the last thing we want is a Watson-style leg injury to Warner and him to be out for months! I just can see any groin tear being ready in 2 days....4 days maybe (Thursday)

I tend to agree with Locky, if Warner's groin is a problem, he shouldn't be risked. Let him recover so he can be fit for the rest of the year. Watson is a prime example of what happens when you put a player back in when he is not quite fit.

I think Warner should be given every opportunity to prove his fitness, and if he is fit, he should be played, but if there are doubts, he shouldn't be risked
