After lighting up the cricket world with his batting pyrotechnics in the Boxing Day Test against India, plenty of cricket fans were disappointed by the omission of Sam Konstas from the Australian XI for this Test, but the 19-year-old seems to have taken the news with typical nonchalance.
I’ve had the Ouija board out channelling the late great Tony Greig’s Weather Wall and the good news is that it’s blue skies in Galle. The forecast for today was a bit grim, with more showers predicted, but the day has dawned bright and sunny and play will start on time, which is to say 15 minutes early, at 3.15pm.
