Hasaranga Picked In Sri Lanka's 16-member Squad For Upcoming Asia Cup
Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium: Leg-spin bowling all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga has been picked in Sri Lanka's 16-member squad for the upcoming Asia Cup despite recently suffering a hamstring injury that ruled him out of the side’s T20I series against Zimbabwe.
Hasaranga injured his hamstring during Sri Lanka's last T20I series against Bangladesh at home and has been out since then due to recovery. But with Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) naming him in the Asia Cup squad, it means that they are optimistic of Hasaranga recovering in time and playing in the tournament to be held in the United Arab Emirates from September 9-28.
Hasaranga’s inclusion means he’s one of two changes from the squad announced for the Zimbabwe series. While Hasaranga will come in for Dushan Hemantha, uncapped batter Vishen Halambage has been left out for the multi-nation tournament.
