T20 World Cup: Sri Lanka's preparations for their upcoming T20I series against India have suffered a significant setback as fast bowler Nuwan Thushara has been ruled out due to a broken finger on his left hand, say a report.
According to ESPNcricinfo, the injury occurred during fielding practice late on Wednesday, as confirmed by team manager Mahinda Halangoda. Despite the injury being on Thushara's non-bowling hand, it is severe enough to prevent his participation in the series.
Thusara's injury marks a severe blow to the Sri Lankan squad already grappling with the absence of another key pacer, Dushmantha Chameera, who is sidelined due to illness.
