  导出博客文章Australias decision to rest Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood might have contributed to their being thrashed 5-0 in the one-day series in South Africa, but Hazlewood is confident that he will be better for the break this Test summer. Wholesake Fake Air Jordan 1 .While Steven Smith and his men fly home from their disappointing tour of South Africa, Hazlewood is in Sydney preparing to play in the later stages of the Matador Cup for New South Wales. Fridays game against Victoria will be his first competitive outing since Australias one-day series in Sri Lanka in late August.Australia used three previously uncapped fast men during the South Africa campaign - Chris Tremain, Joe Mennie and Daniel Worrall - and although they all showed promise at times, overall it was a major step up for the trio. But despite the 5-0 result in the ODIs, Australia must now hope the decision to rest Hazlewood and Starc pays off in next months Test series against South Africa.Sri Lanka was a long tour physically and mentally, Hazlewood told reporters in Sydney on Thursday. And with a lot of cricket coming up I think the rest was valid.However, the absence of Starc and Hazlewood did not help Australias cause in the ODI series, during which Scott Boland and John Hastings were the senior fast bowlers in the side. Tremain finished as Australias leading wicket taker with seven at 36.42, Mennie had a poor debut but bounced back with 3 for 49 in the final game, and Worrall went wicketless in his two ODIs against South Africa.It is an opportunity to see some younger guys, Smith said after the final game in Cape Town. I think with the schedule these days and the amount we play, its impossible particularly for fast bowlers to sustain bowling at good pace for long periods of time.Weve chosen to give Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood a rest for this series. Its given an opportunity for a few younger guys to come in and try and impress. Its been a very tough series for everyone, but Im sure theyll learn a lot out of it.Ive never played in a one-day series where weve lost all five games. Its been a difficult task. Weve been outplayed. But the group has stuck together well. Were always looking at ways we can improve ... We just havent been able to go out there and do the business. Weve had a pretty inexperienced side, to be fair.Smith also highlighted the lack of runs from the batting order, aside from David Warner, as a key reason Australia were unable to win a match. Warner finished as the leading run scorer from either side, with 386 at 77.20 including two centuries, and he is comfortably top of the ODI run list from all countries for the 2016 calendar year, in which he has made five hundreds.We just havent been able to put enough partnerships together, Smith said. Weve had guys who have had starts and not been able to go on with it. Having said that, Davey was magnificent today. To score 170 out of our 290 was remarkable. The rest of us werent good enough. Fake Yeezy . Once again Jordan Cieciwa (@FitCityJordan) and I (@LynchOnSports) go head to head in our picks. Last weekend at UFC Fight Night 32 my #TeamLynch got the best of #TeamJC by a score of 9-6. Let us know which side youre on for UFC 167 use the hashtag #TeamLynch or #TeamJC on Twitter. Wholesale Fake Shoes . Defencemen Drew Doughty, Shea Weber and forward Ryan Getzlaf also scored for the Canadians, who started their gold-medal defence 2-0. Goalie Roberto Luongo, getting the call in place of Game 1 starter Carey Price, was solid when needed in making 23 saves for the shutout. https://www.fakeshoes.net/ .com) - Following a late-game loss to the reigning NBA champs, the Toronto Raptors will look to sustain their recent high-level play as they travel to Indiana to take on the Pacers. Match factsMonday, 21 November Start time 0930 local (0730 GMT)Big PictureIn cricket, momentum is a lot like religious faith. Some people believe in it, and some dont, but either way it seems to be part of the general milieu. Another way of putting it could be: whether you believe you can, or you believe you cant, youre probably right. Sri Lankas momentum will have been dented slightly by their unravelling against West Indies in Harare, and Zimbabwe will believe in themselves a little more after their stunning comeback.Neither team is without its worries: Sri Lankas inexperienced middle order has not quite clicked yet, while Zimbabwe slipped from 190 for 3 to 257 all-out against West Indies. Their performance in the field was also not quite up to scratch, and in that department coach Heath Streak has said: we know were better than what we showed. The result of this game will depend on which team plays to potential and seizes the momentum, and who has more belief on the day. With Zimbabwe currently at the bottom of the points table, with two points from their tie, this is a must-win game for them.The background hum outside of the cricket in Zimbabwe is somewhat depressed, and an upturn in the cricket teams fortunes would help to brighten what could be a somber festive season. The country is on the brink of introducing Bond notes, a form of currency meant to ease the crippling cash liquidity crisis, but not everyone is for it. While the cricket has been going on, activists have been arrested and allegedly assaulted by security forces in Harare, and some fans entering Queens Sports Club on Saturday werent allowed to bring Zimbabwe flags into the ground, as the flag has recently been used as a symbol of protest. Zimbabwe could do with a little cheering up.Form guide(last five completed matches, most recent first)Zimbabwe: TLLLLSri Lanka: LWLLLIn the spotlightZimbabwes top order helped to set up an almost defendable total against West Indies, while the bowlers showed grit.Yet their fielding left much to be desired. Three chances to dismiss eventual centurion Shai Hope were missed, and sloppiness in the field dissipated pressure. Heath Streak will want a cleaner effort from his men in the field.The match between Zimbabwe and West Indies on Saturday showed that, on a slow, gripping surface, the best time for batting is between overs 10 to 35. That will makee the contribution of Sri Lankas middle order vital to their final result. Cheap Fake Shoes. Untested in their series opener against Zimbabwe, the Sri Lankan middle order then stumbled against West Indies, with Nos. 1 to 6 contributing just 69 runs.Teams newsElton Chigumburas form with the bat will be a worry for Zimbabwe. He has managed only nine runs from two innings, but his level head and more than 200 ODIs worth of experience will continue to add value, and Zimbabwe might not want to upset the XI that clicked on Saturday.Zimbabwe (possible): 1 Chamu Chibhabha, 2 Brian Chari, 3 Craig Ervine, 4 Sikandar Raza, 5 Sean Williams, 6 Elton Chigumbura, 7 PJ Moor (wk), 8 Graeme Cremer(c), 9 Donald Tiripano, 10 Tendai Chisoro, 11 Chris Mpofu.Of the three squads, Sri Lanka have the most depth in the spin department and they may look to swap one of their seamers for a spinner. Lakshan Sandakan is a left-arm wristspinner, and the sort of bowler the Zimbabweans will very rarely have faced. With the ability to turn the ball both ways, as well as skid it in to the pads, he would be a handful on a traditional Bulawayo track.Sri Lanka (possible): 1 Dhananjaya de Silva, 2 Kusal Perera, 3 Niroshan Dickwella (wk), 4 Kusal Mendis, 5 Upul Tharanga (c), 6 Asela Gunaratne, 7 Shehan Jayasuriya, 8 Sachith Pathirana, 9 Nuwan Kulasekara, 10 Lakshan Sandakan, 11 Suranga Lakmal.Pitch and conditionsMondays pitch should play much the same as Saturdays, without much lateral movement for the quicks while slowing up and offering something for the spinners later on. While there is cloud around, Monday should be mostly warm and dry. Late afternoon storms are always a possibility at this time of the year.Stats and triviaCraig Ervine played his 50th ODI on Saturday, passing 1,500 runs in the format during his 92. Ervine has had a good year with the bat - in seven international matches in 2016 (four Tests and three ODIs), he has scored 497 runs at 45.18.Sri Lanka have played six ODIs at Queens Sports Club, and have only lost once, to India, in 2010QuotesIts a big game on Monday, but weve just got to take it one over at a time, one ball at a time.Zimbabwe coach Heath Streak is hoping his team can focus on the moment during what is a must-win game against Sri Lanka ' ' '
