Hasaranga to miss Bangladesh T20I series due to injury
Wanindu Hasaranga, Cricfrenzy
Sri Lanka will be without star leg-spinner Wanindu Hasaranga for the upcoming three-match T20I series against Bangladesh, starting Thursday, July 10, after he suffered a hamstring injury during the final ODI.
Hasaranga sustained the injury to his right leg while batting in the third ODI of the recently concluded series, in which Sri Lanka emerged victorious 2-1. The leg-spinner played a crucial role in the opening match, triggering a dramatic collapse that paved the way for Sri Lanka's series lead.

The Sri Lankan cricket board has confirmed that no replacement will be named for Hasaranga. He will return to Colombo and begin his recovery at the High Performance Center under the supervision of the medical team.
Charith Asalanka will continue to lead the T20I side, which features several changes from the squad that faced New Zealand earlier this year.
