(Daily Mirror) - Sri Lanka were dealt another injury blow ahead of the first T20I against India on Saturday, with left-arm fast bowler Binura Fernando being hospitalized due to a chest infection.

Spinner Ramesh Mendis has been brought into the squad as a standby player, Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) said.

Earlier this week, fast bowler Dushmantha Chameera was ruled out of the three-match series through illness, while Nuwan Thushara picked up a left thumb injury that also ruled him out of the series, with Asitha Fernando and Dilshan Madushanka being named as replacements.

After all these, there will be a shortage of quality players for the test series in England, due to injuries, particularly Asitha out of those. That's what SLC for.

During the good old days we never had so many injuries to our fast bowlers. Now we have so many staff to look after our team. Head coach, fast bowling coach. spin bowling coach, batting coach, fielding coach, fitness instrurcutures, consultants etc. It may be a case of too many cooks.
