Sri Lanka Cricket Team News

Former Sri Lankan T20I captain Wanindu Hasaranga has been ruled out of the upcoming ODI series against New Zealand starting November 13. He suffered a hamstring injury in the left leg during the second T20I against the Black Caps and have been deemed unfit to participate in the 50-over clash.

It’s not easy to make a turnaround when the chips are down. But Lockie Ferguson just showed the path to making a strong comeback with a fiery spell against Sri Lanka that involved a hat-trick to derail the hosts' middle-order batters in the second T20I at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium. 

Sanath Jayasuriya has officially been appointed as the head coach of the Sri Lanka Men’s team. The 55-year-old former opener was initially brought on as the interim head coach, but following the team’s impressive performances in recent matches, he has now been entrusted with the full-time role.

Australia Women beat Sri Lanka Women by six wickets in the World T20 game at Sharjah. The Sri Lanka side was poor with the bat as they struggled initially and Megan Schutt’s three-fer wrapped Sri Lanka’s inning for 93 runs whereas Beth Mooney’s 43 off 38 sealed Aussie’s clinical win.
