The Sri Lankan team travelled to Cardiff yesterday, three days ahead to the venue for the first T20I (D/N) match on the England tour, it is learnt here.  

The team, after spending about 12 days in Manchester, could not play any competitive match against English counties but had to be content with the two inter-squad matches because of the pandemic situation.  
“Yes, the players are in good spirits and are raring to go against the hosts,” a member of the support staff said. “Dhananjaya Lakshan who suffered a knee injury on this tour is recovering well and his selection in the final XI will depend on team management’s decision.”
