    Oh whoop-de-doo. A glitzy, effortless, boundary-laden 34 is not what England need.

    Scratch the sarcasm…Solanki is one of England’s better players of spin. The Srilankan attack will revolve around the slow bowling partnerships of Malinga Bandara, Tillikeratna Dilshan, and the redoubtable Sanath Jayasuriya. The trio will continue to do what they have done so well in the recent past: fire the ball into the block hole, and deny any easy singles. With a penchant for using his feet, Solanki is best qualified to counterattack, and add a little mid-innings impeteous.
