Sri Lanka vs Australia: 5 reasons why Australia can redeem themselves in the subcontinent

#3 All-rounders

Mitchell Marsh continues to grow as an all-rounder

The growth of Mitchell Marsh as an all-rounder has been one the stories this season. His inspired performances in the recently concluded Tri-series was an indication of his ability. Marsh, who will walk in No. 6 with the bat is a capable bat against spin and also seam.

And then there is Moises Henriques who is one of the top players of spin in the team. His IPL experience will hold him in good stead. During the 2013 tour to India, Henriques displayed impeccable technique against spin and scored 68 and 81* in Chennai, which was also his debut match.

"After one good Test I felt like I'd displayed that I was good enough, but just not consistent enough. That's the biggest thing, is to do it over and over again. I certainly feel like I've improved as a cricketer and given the opportunity, I'd like to think I could do even better than I did then", Henriques said, which is an indication of his belief.
