He will be well supported by Asela Gunaratne in the middle-order of the Lankan batting unit. The Fool Card for Gunaratne indicates that the youngster will be innovative in his approach to the innings and the risks he takes owing to an unorthodox style of play will yield him good results in this encounter.him good results in this encounter.
