Wanindu still has a chance to compete in the World Cup
The Sri Lanka Cricket Institute has officially released the Sri Lankan squad for the 2023 ODI World Cup Tournament.
At the last moment, Dushan Hemantha has been called to the World Cup squad instead of Wanindu Hasaranga and that is because Wanindu Hasaranga has not fully recovered from his injury.
However, Wanindu has a slim chance to participate in the World Cup.
His condition is being examined by the doctors and once he is able to play, attention has been focused on adding him to the Sri Lankan squad.
Accordingly, if a player in the Sri Lankan squad gets injured, Wanindu Hasaranga will be able to replace that player in the squad.
The official squad of Sri Lanka participating in the World Cup is captain Dasun Shanaka, vice-captain Kusal Mendis, Kusal Janith Perera, Dimuth Karunaratne, Pathum Nissanka, Sadheera Samarawickrama, Charith Asanka, Dhananjaya de Silva, Dunit Vellalage, Mahish Thiekshana, Dushan Hemantha, Kasun Rajitha, Matisha Pathirana, Dilshan Madhushanka and Lahiru Kumari.
Chamika Karunaratne has been named as an additional player.
