Srilanka

Sri Lanka is to set up a brilliant start to the Asia Cup campaign as they were the host but were not stable to organize it in their country. The Sri Lankan came with a few surprising changes in the team.

Dinesh Chandimal made his come back to the T20 format. In comparison, Dasun Shanaka will lead the team. Overall this year’s performance in Sri Lanka was not quite good, but they would be a surprising team because their spin department is good.
