, after a bold Australian plan to vault Jon Holland into the XI was foiled by the left-armer’s red raw spinning finger.
“I think his role here might be slightly different,” captain Pat Cummins said of Swepson. “[In] Pakistan we knew it was going to be a slow grind and I thought he did his job despite maybe not taking the wickets he’d have liked. He was a really important cog in that bowling engine. Of course, one of Cummins’ most potent weapons in his own bowling. Entering his 42nd Test match, he is just three shy of 200 Test wickets. To reach the mark in that number of Tests would mean Cummins matches Warne, Muttiah Muralitharan, Allan Donald and Malcolm Marshall for effectiveness.earlier this year. Sri Lanka Cricket has billed the Test series as being played in tribute to Warne and Cricket Australia’s chief executive Nick Hockley will be in Galle for the match.
