Avishka Fernando and Dushan Hemantha have been added to the 15-member Sri Lanka squad for the upcoming Asia Cup, it is learned.
The 29-year-old all-rounder, Dushan Hemantha, has replaced the injured Wanindu Hasaranga, who has a hamstring injury and is ruled out for at least the initial matches of the Asia Cup.
Like Wanindu, Dushan Hemantha is also a right-hand batter and a leg-break bowler.
The 25-year-old Avishka Fernando not only opens the batting but is also a right-arm fast bowler, similar to Chameera.
There have been no changes in most of the support staff, except for the addition of one fielding coach. Manoj Abeywickrama, who was a second fielding coach when the home team last played against Pakistan, will not be with the team in Kandy. Only Anton Roux will be in charge of the fielding coaching for the team.
The Sri Lanka team is scheduled to leave from Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) headquarters for Kandy on Sunday evening.
Both the Sri Lanka and Indian teams will be staying in the same hotel.
Sri Lanka will be playing their first match against Bangladesh on Thursday.
