Why didn't Angelo Mathews bowl during Pakistan's innings?

[bilawal666]

Does anybody know why? It beats me why Dilshan didn't have mathews bowl a single over, not even to break any of the big partnerships we put up...is he injured or was it something tactical, what do you guys think?

Shoulder injury

can't be tactical, must be carrying injury.

[bilawal666]

so with a shoulder injury, they're playing him as a batsman alone and that too before samaraweera?

^ If you look at his performances against Australia and even in this match against Pakistan you shouldn't ask this question.

If they wanted to include Samaraweera it would have been in place for some other player.

Injured.
