Sri Lanka's right arm fast bowler Lahiru Kumar's participation in the ongoing Test against Bangladesh will depend on the MRI reports, it is learnt. 

The 24- year old Kumara was not on the field on the third day today due to the hamstring injury. 

"He is getting massages and other treatment under the supervision of the team physio", a source who is monitoring the players' fitness said. 

"He is unlikely to take part today", he said, additing, "He will be sent for the MRI scans in the evening and the reports of the scans will decide whether he would be available for the remainder days". 

Lahiru will be taken to Asiri Hospital in Kandy for scans.
