Sri Lankan speedsters Matheesha Pathirana and Dilshan Madushanka have been ruled out from the ODI series against India.
Pathirana, who picked up a shoulder injury in the last T20I against India, will miss the ODI series as the selectors are not taking any risks with the young quick.

To replace both quicks, the selectors have brought in uncapped seamers Mohamed Shiraz and Eshan Malinga to the squad.
