| After being dropped in the last two matches, veteran Sanath Jayasuriya may return to the Sri Lankan playing XI in a do-or-die fourth one-dayer against India at Eden Gardens on Thursday. In the absence of all-rounder Angelo Mathews, Sri Lanka struggled in Cuttack in the third one-dayer and the visitors might be forced to bring in the once explosive opening batsman. The team management gave a lot of focus on Jayasuriya in the practice session on Wednesday and he spent a considerable amount of time batting at the nets. Team coach Trevor Bayliss was, however, non-committal when asked whether a Sachin (Tendulkar) vs Sanath Jayasuriya battle is on the cards. “There is always a chance. But, we have not finalised the team yet. In the last two games, we wanted to play with two genuine spinners. Unfortunately, that meant Sanath had to miss out,” he said. “The pitch seems to be a very good batting wicket, promising plenty of runs,” Bayliss said. |
