IND SL Bengaluru Test: Sri Lanka likely to add ‘MYSTERY Spinner’ Praveen Jayawickrama to playing XI for 2nd Test: Follow LIVE Updates

What makes Praveen Mysterious? Jayawickrama has produced some good performances in his three-match career. The highlight so far was his match-winning 11-wicket haul against Bangladesh on debut, in Pallekele, last year.

What deliveries Praveen Jayawickrama bowls?

Jayawickrama is a different spinner from Embuldeniya. He is very quick through the air.

Instead of traditional spinners, he bowls more wicket-to-wicket, and has a better straighter delivery. Expect him to relentlessly attack the stumps.

If he gets among the wickets, it’ll probably be lbw and bowled dismissals. After three Tests, he averages 18.22.

In the 1st test, the visitors played only one specialist spinner in Lasith Embuldeniya. The 25-year-old bowled a lot of overs and lacked support from the other end.

Jayawickrama’s inclusion in the pink-ball Test will give options to skipper Dimuth Karunaratne, who will be desperate to make a comeback in the second Test.
