One match has already been played between the two teams in the series. Which ended in a tie. The second match of the series will be played on 04 August. Just before this match, a star player of Sri Lanka has been ruled out of the entire series. This player is none other than Sri Lankan all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga. This has been revealed in Sri Lankan media reports. This is a big setback for the Sri Lankan cricket team.
Hasaranga ruled out with hamstring injury
All-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga has been ruled out of the ongoing ODI series against India due to injury. Sri Lanka’s team was already struggling with the absence of fast bowlers Mathisha Pathirana and Dilshan Madushanka and now their team will be weakened due to the absence of Hasaranga.
Hasaranga was in excellent form and played a key role for Sri Lanka in the first ODI. His three wickets and quick innings of 24 runs proved to be very important for the Sri Lankan team. However, a hamstring injury is hampering his fitness.
the first match was a tie
The first match of this series between the two teams was a tie. Both teams scored 230 runs in this match. In the first ODI match played on Friday, while chasing the target of 231 runs, India was at one time in a good position with 130 runs on the loss of three wickets, but its position worsened in front of Sri Lankan spinners and neither team could win the match.
