I love the Sri Lankan cricket team and how they play the game, however, I think they’re in for a rough Test series against the Aussies this summer. The Australian batsmen will be aiming to go out there and cement their positions in the upcoming tours of India and England, and Sri Lanka just doesn’t have the bowling attack to take 20 wickets against these guys. In the shorter version of the game I would back the Sri Lankans, but they are not up to scratch in Test cricket and Hobart’s conditions are not suited to them at all. The Aussies to win easily in what should be the first in a 3-0 series whitewash.
