Kamil Mishara, Himasha Liyanage & Prabath Jayasuriya have been changed from the initial team they were named for the Dialog SLC Invitational T20 League.
These changes took place due to a couple of COVID cases, a few injuries and several other players failing the fitness test.
The following are how the changes were made,
01) Himasha Liyanage moved from Team Blues to Greys
02) Kamil Mishara moved from Team Greens to Greys
03) Prabath Jayasuriya moved from Team Greys to Reds
A mandatory fitness test was conducted on all the players involved and 7 of them failed to clear the minimum required fitness levels. All 7 of them being young talent of Sri Lanka, is indeed a major cause of disappointment.
