    By IANS News January 21, 2026 • 14:30 PM View: 305
    The Sri Lanka Cricket Board: The Sri Lanka Cricket Board (SLC) announced a 17-member squad for the upcoming ODI series against England, which begins on Thursday. The team will be led by Charith Asalanka, who will resume his leadership in the 50-over format after being sacked as Sri Lanka's captain for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2026.

    Sri Lanka have recalled Dhananjay de Silva and Dushmantha Chameera, who had been missing from the ODI setup for a long time, adding more experience to the team.

    Asalanka had returned home with Asitha Fernando after falling ill before the T20I series against Pakistan but is now deemed fit to lead the side in ODIs. As many as 14 players who featured in their last ODI series against Pakistan have retained their places.
