Oshada Fernando Returns As Sri Lanka Name Squad For NZ Tests

Greater Noida Sports Complex Ground: Oshada Fernando makes a comeback after a one-year gap as Sri Lanka announced squad for the upcoming home two-match Test series against New Zealand. The series will be part of the World Test Championship, slated to be played at Galle International Stadium from September 18.

Fernando's last Test was against New Zealand in March 2023. He found his place back in the red-ball team after scoring 122 and 80 for Sri Lanka A against South Africa A earlier this month.

The 33-year-old replaced Nishan Madushka, who was part of the side that toured England for a three-match Test series. Sri Lanka won the final match of the series by eight wickets at The Oval to avoid a clean sweep in the tour.
