Sri Lanka has suffered another setback before the start of the three match T20 series against India. Fast bowler Nuwan Thushara is also out of the series due to injury.

Sri Lanka has to play a three match T20 International series against Team India from Saturday 27 July, but even before that the team has suffered two setbacks one after the other. Earlier Dushmantha Chameera was ruled out of the T20 series due to injury and now Nuwan Thushara will also have to sit out of the three-match T20I series.

Nuwan Thushara was injured during practice. In such a situation, the Sri Lankan team is in trouble even before the series starts. However, the board has also announced the replacement of both the players. Chameera’s replacement has already been announced, while Thushara’s replacement was announced by the board later.
