Sri Lanka selectors have named a 16-member squad for the upcoming ODI series against Bangladesh     

The speedster Lahiru Kumara returns to the national ODI squad after a five-month layoff, replacing the injured Asitha Fernando.  

The other change in the squad is the inclusion of Kamindu Mendis, who replaces the young opening batter Shevon Daniel. The other members of the squad were part of the winning team that whitewashed Afghanistan 3-0 in the three-match series last month.  

The three-match ODI series against Bangladesh will be played on the 13th, 15th and 18th of March at Chattogram.  

Spectators can catch all the action of the Sri Lanka Tour of Bangladesh on ThePapare TV – Channel Number 63 on Dialog Television or watch the livestream via ThePapare.com and the Dialog ViU app.
