Sri Lanka Drops Wickramasinghe For Australia ODIs, Opts For Spin-heavy Squad
Captain Charith Asalanka: Sri Lanka have announced a 16-member squad for the upcoming two-match ODI series against Australia, with seam-bowling all-rounder Chamindu Wickramasinghe being the only omission from the squad that recently toured New Zealand.
The decision to exclude Wickramasinghe aligns with the team's strategy of bolstering their spin attack, considering the home conditions. It is altogether another matter that Sri Lanka lost 0-2 to Australia in the two-Test series at Galle, failing to capitalise on the spin-friendly conditions.
The selection committee has opted for a spin-heavy squad, a move driven by the nature of Sri Lankan pitches that traditionally favour slow bowlers. Dunith Wellalage, who has emerged as a key player in such conditions, retains his spot as a spin-bowling all-rounder.
