Sri Lanka have called up Lahiru Udara to replace Pathum Nissanka in their squad for the upcoming two-Test series against Pakistan after the opening batter failed to recover from a hamstring injury.
Pathum Nissanka will return from injury to bolster Sri Lanka ahead of the Test series in Pakistan next month, while wicketkeeper Anjala Bandara is set to make his international debut.
A sensational unbeaten century from Pathum Nissanka powered Sri Lanka to a superb eight-wicket victory over Australia in T20 World Cup action on Monday.
