Rangana Herath will miss third Test against India:
Rangana
Herath will not be available for the third Test against India due to back
problems. Rangana is likely to be replaced by Vandersey, who has not played any
Test match. The third Test match b/w India & Sri Lanka will start on 2nd
December, 2017.
Rangana Herath ruled out of third Test against India
"Rangana complained of stiffness in his back during the
match. This happens to him whenever he tries to bowl a little faster,"
said manager Gurusinha.
Herath
went wicketless in first Test but he added 67 runs with the bat that helped Sri
Lanka post a first innings lead of 122 runs. The opposition spinners grabbed 13
wickets but Herath finished with just one wicket in second Test at Nagpur.
India only batted once in that Test & they declared after posting 610-6.
Sri
Lanka bowlers managed to take only 6 wickets in second Test & they will
play the upcoming Test without their top bowler. Vandersey has only played 11
ODIs & 7 T20s & he has taken only 14 wickets in all. His record in ODIs
& T20s is not good.
Sri
Lanka also have another spinner Sandakan who could not take a single wicket in
the tour game in Kolkata. Sandakan has played 7 Tests.
