Sri Lanka Name Charith Asalanka Captain For ODIs Against India, Madushanka Gets Maiden Call-up
T20 World Cup: Sri Lanka have named Charith Asalanka as captain, replacing Kusal Mendis ahead of the three-match series against India, starting on August 2. Asalanka was earlier appointed as the T20I captain after Wanindu Hasaranga stepped down from the role following Sri Lanka's early exit from the 2024 T20 World Cup.
Asalanka's promotion to T20I captain was anticipated following Hasaranga's resignation, but the change in ODI leadership was somewhat surprising, especially given that Mendis had held the position for a short time. Under Mendis' captaincy, Sri Lanka won six of the eight completed ODIs including five consecutive home matches against Afghanistan and Zimbabwe, but lost 2-1 away to Bangladesh.
Nonetheless, Asalanka has been one of Sri Lanka's most consistent ODI batters, boasting an average of 43.59 and a strike rate of 90 across 52 innings. Test batter Nishan Madushka, 24, has received his maiden ODI call-up. Additionally, Akila Dananjaya and Chamika Karunaratne have been recalled to the squad.
