It should have been -
Kandy - Hoggard, Sidebottom, Broad
Colombo - Sidebottom, Anderson, Harmison
Galle - Hoggard, Sidebottom, Harmison
Anderson used whenever Hoggard is injured.
Tremlett used when Harmison is injured
Broad and Bopara should have stayed in the ODI team for a bit longer as they will be around for many years to come. Tremlett and Shah have been very unlucky.
