After a delay owing to the ongoing socio-political turmoil in the country, Sri Lanka Cricket have announced the 20-man squad for the Asia Cup, set to be held in UAE. The selectors have opted to include experienced keeper-batter Dinesh Chandimal, who missed the team’s last T20I assignment – a home series against Australia in June and July. His last T20I outing came in India in February this year.
Sri Lanka squad: Dasun Shanaka (captain), Dhanushaka Gunathilaka, Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis, Charith Asalanka, Bhanuka Rajapaksha, Ashen Bandara, Dhananjaya de Silva, Wanidu Hasaranga, Mahesh Theekshana, Jeffery Vandersay, Praveen Jayawickrema, Dushmantha Chameera, Binura Fernando, Chamika Karunaratne, Dilshan Madushanka, Matheesha Pathirana, Dinesh Chandimal, Nuwanindu Fernando and Kasun Rajitha
