Uncapped fast bowler Vikum Sanjaya was the surprise inclusion in Sri Lankas Test squad to South Africa, which also sees the return of captain Angelo Mathews, wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Chandimal, and fast bowler Dushmantha Chameera.Batsman Upul Tharanga, who made a successful return to Tests on the tour of Zimbabwe, was also named, but there was no place for allrounder Asela Gunaratne, who had also impressed in that series. Wicketkeeper-batsman Niroshan Dickwella was left out too.Among the five specialist quicks in the squad, also, is 19-year-old Lahiru Kumara, who made his Test debut in Zimbabwe, and Nuwan Pradeep, who made his return from injury during the ODI leg of that tour. Suranga Lakmal rounds out the pace contingent. Dhammika Prasad is unavailable due to having recently undergone shoulder surgery.Sanjaya, now 24, had played in Sri Lankas Under-19 team, and though inexperienced at the first-class level, has been on the top-level coaches radar for some time. Bowling at speeds of around 135 kph, it is Sanjayas outswing that had caught the coaches attention. He had been among the wickets in Sri Lankas recent Mercantile Tournament, and more recently, picked up 6 for 73 in Burgher Recreation Clubs first first-class match of the season. All told, he has 38 wickets at an average of 33.78 from 17 first-class games.Vikum is a player we have been watching for some time, and a player who has done well in domestic and mercantile cricket, chief selector Sanath Jayasuriya said. Hes also been in our 20-man fast-bowling academy squads. We thought he was bowling very well at the moment, so we should give him an opportunity. And for a young fast bowler, South Africa is one of the best places to tour.Aside, perhaps, from Gunaratnes exclusion, there were no major surprises elsewhere in the squad. Dimuth Karunaratne and Kaushal Silva are set to open the batting again. The middle order of Kusal Mendis, Mathews, Chandimal and Dhananjaya de Silva, which had been successful during the home series against Australia, is set to stay in place. Kusal Perera will be considered for the No. 3 position again, and Tharanga is likely to be the reserve batsman.The selectors also opted for experience in the spin department; offspinner Dilruwan Perera picked ahead of younger wristspinners Lakshan Sandakan and Jeffrey Vandersay, to partner Rangana Herath.The return of both Chameera and Pradeep are a significant boon to the squad - that is if they can stay fit until the Tests begin. Chameera had sustained a stress fracture in the Headingley Test in May, and has been unavailable for Tests since then. He claimed match figures of 2 for 76 on a spin-friendly Nondescripts Cricket Club track in the last week, getting through 23 overs in total. Pradeep, meanwhile, had been laid low by a recurring hamstring injury, but had been sporadically effective in his comeback ODI series in Zimbabwe last month.Mathews, who had also been unavailable due to multiple leg injuries, will return to reclaim the captaincy from Herath, who had stood in during the 2-0 win over Zimbabwe. Chandimal has also recovered from his broken hand, and appears likeliest to take the wicketkeeping gloves.The team will leave Colombo on December 10, and is set to play a three-day warm-up match in Potchefstroom starting on December 18. The first of the three Tests begins in Port Elizabeth on Boxing Day, before the action moves to Cape Town, and Johannesburg. Cheap Portugal Jerseys China .

Joao Mario Portugal Jersey . However, he did make them miss him a little less. Cundiff, who had the unenviable job of replacing Dawson last season, agreed Thursday to a one-year, $1. Gelson Martins Portugal Jersey .B. -- The Baie-Comeau Drakkar took over sole possession of first place atop the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League on Thursday with their sixth straight win. OAKLAND, Calif. -- Andrew Bogut and Harrison Barnes return to the site of last years ultimate failure in the NBA Finals when the Dallas Mavericks visit the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night.Bogut and Barnes were members of the Golden State team that won a championship in 2014-15 and came within one victory of a repeat last June against the Cleveland Cavaliers.The two frontcourt starters were salary-cap casualties in the wake of the runner-up finish when the Warriors exhausted basically all available funds on signing free agent Kevin Durant away from the Oklahoma Thunder for $54.3 million over two years.Bogut was dealt to the Mavericks in July in a swap of future second-round picks, with Dallas agreeing to absorb the remaining $11 million on the veteran centers contract.Bogut, the anchor of Golden States defense in recent years, contributed an average of 5.4 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.6 blocks to the Warriors cause last season.Just seven games into the new year, Warriors holdover Draymond Green assured Monday night that Bogut is missed.Defense is just like offense; its a chemistry thing, Green told reporters after Mondays 116-106 home victory over New Orleans. Last year we had Bogut back there protecting the rim. Hes one of the best at that -- maybe even THE best. Now we have Zaza (Pachulia). Hes a good positional player, but hes different. Its something we have to adjust to.Barnes, who averaged 11.7 points per game for the Warriors last season, has been replaced in the starting lineup by Durant. The former Golden State first-round pick got a four-year, $94.4 million contract from the Mavericks shortly after it became clear the Warriors were moving in aa different direction.ddddddddddddI had a great experience at Golden State, Barnes told reporters over the summer when asked what returning to Oakland as a visiting player would be like. They were a first-class organization. The fans there were great. It wont be anything bitterness or anything like that.Barnes already is thriving in a new system. Hes scored in double figures in every game, including 31 for the second time this season in Tuesdays 109-97 victory over the Lakers in Los Angeles, and has also scored 34 en route to a 22.3-point average.He never scored more than 21 for the Warriors last season, and was held to fewer than 10 points on 24 different occasions.While Barnes has been a boost for the Mavericks, so has Durant for the Warriors. He has topped 20 points in all seven games, running his streak of 20 or more points to 71 straight contests.For the second game in a row, the Warriors will be seeing an opponent thats at far less than full strength.With Dirk Nowitzki (Achilles), Deron Williams (calf) and Devin Harris (toe) all nursing injuries, the Mavericks (2-5) lost their first five games before getting into the win column Sunday night with an overtime triumph over Milwaukee.Dallas made it two straight Tuesday with their 11th consecutive victory over Los Angeles behind a strong performance from JJ Barea, who recorded 18 points, eight assists and seven rebounds.The Warriors (5-2) are coming off a win over a Pelicans team that was without Jrue Holiday and Tyreke Evans. Stephen Curry set an NBA record with 13 3-pointers in the victory.
