Asia Cup 2023: Maheesh Theekshana Ruled Out Of Final Due To Hamstring Injury; Washington Called Up As Cover For Axar

By IANS News September 16, 2023 • 12:58 PM View: 1046

Sri Lanka off-spinner Maheesh Theekshana has been ruled out of the Asia Cup final clash against India on Sunday due to hamstring injury, while the visitors have called up off-spin all-rounder Washington Sundar as a cover for left-arm spin all-rounder Axar Patel.

Theekshana had strained his right hamstring during the Super Four game against Pakistan and hobbled off the field after completing his quota of overs. Sri Lankan selectors have brought in Sahan Arachchige into the squad as Theekshana’s replacement.
