Before I took a look at this thread I named 5 players in my head and low and behold you've posted them Ginger. I must try to consider some alternatives.

I usually go for players that nobody else picks, but am changing tactics.

1) Angelo Mathews (SL)
2) Dinesh Chandimal (SL)
3) Dushmantha Chameera (SL)
4) Rangana Herath (SL)
5) Kusal Mendis (SL)

Subs
Milinda Siriwardana (SL)
Kaushal Silva (SL)
