#4 Kusal Mendis
The thing about Kusal Mendis is that he is one of the most talented batsman in the country at the moment. A terrific striker of the ball, Mendis has shown on more than one occasion his ability to change the course of games.
He did that against Australia at the very same stadium (Pallekele) in 2016 with a superb 176 that won him the Man of the Match award.
Mendis has been decent for Sri Lanka in this series but hasn't shown the kind of consistency Lankan need from him at no.3. True, he is young and lacks experience, but with this side in the decline, they need the younger guns to step up and quickly.
