The A team series between Sri Lanka and Australia looks to be an opportunity for some failing ex-internationals to reassert their claims rather than a breeding ground for youth.
This is best seen by the match winning performance that Cameron Green put in today. A veteran of 17 International caps across all three formats, Green has only recently been out of the frame for the full national team. His 111 ball 119 in Australia Australia chase of 297 would have maybe edged him a bit closer to that frame once more.
This theme of experienced players forcing their agenda was continued across the board with Matt Renshaw (11 Tests) and Dhananjaya de Silva (121 national appearances!!!) also excelling with the bat.
