Coach not sure changes needed for 4th Oz-Lanka ODI

Colombo, Thu, 18 Aug 2011 ANI

Colombo, Aug18 (ANI): Australian cricket team coach Tim Nielsen has said that he is not sure about making changes to the one-day cricket side for Saturday's fourth match against Sri Lanka to be played here.

 

Reacting a question days after Australia suffered a 78-run loss to Sri Lanka in the third ODI played at Hambantota, Nielsen said that he still retained faith in the eleven picked so far, as they had won the first two ODIs comfortably.

 

"I think all 11 players have done a pretty good job. We'll just make sure everyone pulls up well and we'll have to have a look at the conditions. To be honest, we've looked at the wicket each time and tried to make a decision on what's the best XI to use in those particular conditions that were offered," the Sydney Morning herald quoted Nielsen, as saying.

 

"We felt like if we had bowled a bit fuller in game three, we could have taken a few early wickets which would have changed the complexion of the game. If we could have got a little partnership going at the top, it would have changed the whole complexion of the game also," he added.

 

Australia travelled from Hambantota to Colombo on Wednesday and enjoyed a rare day off on Thursday.

 

The team will train for the first time at the Premadasa Stadium on Friday, giving them one chance to look at the pitch for Saturday's game before deciding their line-up. (ANI)
