Ahead Of White-ball Series Against India, Wanindu Hasaranga Steps Down As Sri Lanka T20I Captain

By IANS News July 12, 2024 • 08:18 AM View: 617

Sri Lanka T20I: Ahead of Sri Lanka's white-ball series against India later this month, leg-spin all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga has resigned as the side’s T20I captain. Hasaranga was appointed as Sri Lanka’s T20I captain last year and led the team in 10 matches.

His last captaincy assignment saw Sri Lanka crash out of the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup in group stage. In a statement issued by Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC), Hasaranga said it was in the best interest of the team that he decided to relinquish his captaincy duties and would remain in the side as a player.
