Aaron Finch has labeled the Khettarama pitch a poor wicket, after he struck a 46-ball 56 to set Australia on track for a three-wicket victory in the first ODI. Finch was only at the crease for the first 14.2 overs of the innings, but the ball was consistently raising puffs even during Sri Lankas innings. Significant turn was also on offer - though Khettarama has long been a spin-friendly venue.I dont think Ive ever played on a wicket that spun that much, Finch said. It was a pretty poor wicket I think. For balls to be going through the top from the second over - Josh Hazlewood to Tillakaratne Dilshan - for the second over of the game, I think that was pretty poor. We played well to track down that total. It seemed like a different spinner was bowling every over. Theyve got plenty of options and we played exceptionally well with the bat to get across the line.Finch also suggested the practice pitches Australia had used at Khettarama had played differently from the track prepared for match day.The ones next to it that weve been training on have been pretty good wickets. They started to spin a bit yesterday - late yesterday. I dont think Ive seen any wickets that have spun to that extreme - particularly in a one-day game. I suppose the wickets that we trained on were probably not very similar, to be fair.Among batsmen who made more than 25, Finch was the only one to maintain a strike rate higher than 90. He hit two sixes and seven fours in his innings, and his aggression got Australia well ahead of the required rate.I think the way that the game panned out, we noticed that as soon as the ball got a bit older, it started to spin quite big and it wasnt coming on to the bat. We just made a call to try and take on the new ball. Generally in the subcontinent that is the way to play. It came off today for a little bit, so it was nice to get the team off to a flyer. I think thats generally the way that games go on wickets that are so slow and low.Mitchell Starc became the fastest bowler to 100 ODI wickets in this match, achieving the milestone in 52 matches, to beat Saqlain Mushtaq, who had got there in 53 games. Starc has been excellent through Australias tour of Sri Lanka, having taken 24 wickets in the Tests as well.Its a fantastic achievement from Mitchell - hes been the best in the world for a number of years now, Finch said. When he gets it right theres absolutely no one better around. We were aware of the record. We thought that hed get it in the tri-series in the West Indies, in June, but he didnt get any wickets in the final.Finch was also full of praise for James Faulkner, who took 4 for 38 in his 10 overs, despite Finch dropping a catch off his bowling. Finch had been fielding at deep square leg when he palmed a slog sweep from Kusal Mendis onto the boundary. Faulkner did eventually take Mendis wicket.Faulkner was fantastic, Finch said. When youve got three or four different kinds of slower balls, its a huge advantage. You can always make sure its turning away from the bat. He was a bit unlucky early - I lost one straight in the sun. He probably thought it was going to be one of those days, but he stuck to the basics well and kept doing what hes very good at.Vapormax Nere Scontate .

Brian Downing was with the Chicago White Sox at a time when I listened to every game I possibly could on the radio. That particular season the late great Harry Caray was calling the White Sox games.A late fightback from Northampton could not deny Bath a deserved opening day victory at a drenched Franklins Gardens.George Ford kicked all Baths points as the visitors controlled a dreary game with no try-scoring chances until, with six minutes to go, replacement scrum-half Nic Groom scored two tries in four minutes.Bath held on for the final two minutes to record a victory that will put last seasons woes behind them and give new director of rugby Todd Blackadder a winning start.Northampton gave a first start to big-money signing Louis Picamoles, the French international joining from Toulouse in the summer, while director of rugby Jim Mallinder decided to put son Harry at fly-half, leaving regular number 10 Stephen Myler on the bench.Bath had a new number eight of their own in British Lion Taulupe Faletau, but the Welsh international lasted just 12 minutes, limping off on the same leg that had a thigh already heavily strapped.After missing out on the play-offs last season Saints were hoping Mallinder would ignite a backline that failed to fire last term, but in the rain it did not materialise. And the one constant that has been Northamptons lineout was badly disrupted by Bath, who also took the honours in the scrum.The early pressure from the home side brought two penalties, with both kicked to the corner, but both times England captain Dylan Hartley failed to find his jumper, with David Denton proving a nuisance.Mallinder missed the first shot at the posts on 23 minutes and instead Ford put the visitors 3--0 in front seven minutes before half-time and five minutes later he added to it with a drop-goal right in front after Saints lost another lineout on their 22.ddddddddddddMallinder sliced a penalty right in front of the posts wide leaving the home side scoreless and 6-0 down at the break.And he started the second half with a bad pass that saw Ahsee Tuala knock-on. Bath won a penalty at the scrum just outside the 22 and Ford made it 9-0.Suddenly Bath were playing full of confidence, Saints were missing tackles and Semesa Rokoduguni was about to touch down after totally flummoxing Tuala with a sidestep, but he was brought back for a forward pass.As the game entered the last quarter Myler came on at fly-half with Mallinder moving to inside centre position, but the errors were still giving Bath chances and another Ford drop-goal made it 12-0.The Saints scrum was also in trouble, shoved off their own ball to give Ford an easy three points from 20 metres out.The TMO decided on another penalty, as Courtney Lawes was judged to have not used his arms in a tackle and from just outside the Saints 22 Ford made it 18-0.After Chris Cook was sin-binned with six minutes to go Groom scurried over for a try and four minutes later the home crowd suddenly came alive as he juggled the ball to touch down from close range again.But it was all too late and Bath ended their 16-year hoodoo at Northampton.
