The Sri Lankan cricket team for the second Test against England, starting tomorrow (August 29) at Lord’s, has undergone two significant changes. Kusal Mendis and Vishwa Fernando have been omitted from the squad, with Pathum Nissanka and Lahiru Kumara called up as their replacements.
The revised Sri Lankan team is as follows:
- Dimuth Karunaratne
- Nishan Madushka
- Pathum Nissanka
- Angelo Mathews
- Dinesh Chandimal
- Dhananjaya de Silva
- Kamindu Mendis
- Prabhat Jayasuriya
- Asitha Fernando
- Lahiru Kumara
- Milan Ratnayake
Sri Lanka has a challenging history at Lord’s, having played eight Test matches at the venue without securing a victory. The team will aim to break this streak and make a strong showing in the upcoming match.
