Nuwan Thushara ruled out

Sri Lanka's fast bowler Nuwan Thushara has been ruled out of the upcoming T20 International series against India due to a broken finger sustained during a training session. This injury is particularly significant as it follows the sidelining of another key pacer, Dushmantha Chameera, who is absent due to illness. Thushara had been in excellent form, having been the highest wicket-taker for Sri Lanka in the recent T20 World Cup. Dilshan Madushanka has been named as Thushara's replacement, while Asitha Fernando will step in for Chameera. The T20I series against India begins on July 27, and both teams are under new coaching leadership. Thushara's absence is a major blow to the Sri Lankan squad as they prepare to face a strong Indian team.
