|| CF DESK ||
Sri Lanka's preparations for the second Test against Bangladesh, scheduled to commence on Saturday, have been dealt a blow as fast bowler Kasun Rajitha has been sidelined due to an upper back injury.
Rajitha played a pivotal role in Sri Lanka's commanding 328-run victory in the opening Test, claiming eight wickets, including a notable 5 for 56 in Bangladesh's second innings.
To fill the void left by Rajitha's absence, Asitha Fernando has been drafted into the squad. However, Sri Lanka is yet to finalize the lineup for the upcoming match.
In light of his injury, Rajitha will return to Sri Lanka to commence his rehabilitation, as confirmed by Sri Lanka Cricket.
