Sri Lanka Recall Mendis, Nissanka For Second Test Against Australia
Major League Tournament: Sri Lanka have made key changes to their squad ahead of the second Test against Australia, starting Thursday in Galle. Off-spinning all-rounder Ramesh Mendis has been recalled, while seamer Vishwa Fernando and top-order batter Lahiru Udara have been released from the squad.
The decision comes after Sri Lanka’s bowling attack struggled in the first Test, conceding a massive 654/6 in the first innings, as Australia crushed the hosts by an innings and 242 runs.
According to Daily Mirror, Mendis, who was dropped from the Test XI and then the squad entirely following a disappointing performance against New Zealand in November, has forced his way back into contention with impressive form in Sri Lanka’s Major League Tournament.
