CWG 2022 Cricket: Sri Lanka finalise 15-member squad for Commonwealth Games 2022, Chamari Athapaththu to lead
The squad is similar to the one that lost a 2-1 T20I series at home against India last month, with star batter Chamari Athapaththu once again named skipper for the Birmingham event.
Opener Vishmi Gunaratne is likely to partner Athapaththu at the top of the batting order after she impressed during her first series against India, while all-rounder Kavisha Dilhari has also been included.
Left-arm spinner Inoka Ranaweera will headline the Sri Lanka bowling crew, with veteran off-spinner Oshadi Ranasinghe also added to the squad to provide support.
Sri Lanka have been entered into Group B of the 10-day event, with their opening match coming up against hosts England at Edgbaston on July 30.
