Fast bowler  Dushmantha Chameera  is in doubt for Sri Lanka's Test tour of the West Indies in June, due to a back complaint. He has also been ruled out of at least the first three weeks of the IPL, and remained in Colombo instead of joining the Rajasthan Royals squad. Further medical tests will determine the exact length of his layoff and recovery.

Angelo Mathews  is out of the ongoing ODI tri-nation series, but is also in serious doubt for the Tests against Bangladesh, and has returned to Colombo for treatment.

Dhananjaya de Silva  will join the Sri Lanka ODI team that is currently playing the Tri-Nation Series in Bangladesh, as a replacement for the injured  Kusal Perera . Kusal suffered a side strain during his innings of 49 in Sri Lanka's match  against Zimbabwe  on Sunday. He has been advised rest, and will miss the rest of the tournament.

Sri Lanka's limited-overs captain  Angelo Mathews  has been sidelined with a hamstring injury for two matches in the ongoing tri-series in Bangladesh. Mathews will miss Friday's ODI against Bangladesh as well as their next match against Zimbabwe on Sunday. Dinesh Chandimal  will lead Sri Lanka in his absence.  Mathews had recently been  reappointed  Sri Lanka's limited-overs captain after he had stepped down from the post in July last year.

The 26-year-old scored a match-saving century during the third Test at the Feroz Shah Kotla.

Chandika Hathurusingha 's first full assignment with Sri Lanka will be the tour to Bangladesh, where he will have just finished up as head coach. Though Hathurusingha had handed his resignation to the Bangladesh Cricket Board as early as October, the boards had been in discussions with him, and indeed with each other, as to what a peaceable relocation of the coach might look like. But SLC has now confirmed that Hathurusingha will begin his three-year contract with Sri Lanka on December 20, just as their T20s against India start. A two Test tour of Bangladesh is set to begin in January. He will be Sri Lanka's 11th head coach (including interim appointments) since 2011. The three-year contract should take him up to the end of 2020, so long as it is honoured by all parties.

Jeffrey Vandersay, the Sri Lankan leg-break bowler, will be flown to India as cover for Rangana Herath, who is set to miss the third Test of the ongoing India-Sri Lanka Test series. The 39-year-old Herath complained about back pain after the end of the second Test at Nagpur, having bowled 39 overs in the only innings India batted. The final Test of the series starts on December 2, and will be held at the Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium in New Delhi.

The only man who didn't bowl is wicketkeeper Niroshan Dickwella. Sri Lanka's bowling card
