Sri Lanka has added off-spinner Nishan Peiris to their squad for the 2nd Test against New Zealand after fast bowler Vishwa Fernando was withdrawn due to an injury concern.
Peiris, a promising young talent, has impressed in domestic cricket, and this call-up offers him the chance to make his Test debut if Sri Lanka opts for a change in their bowling lineup. His inclusion strengthens Sri Lanka’s spin options as they prepare to face New Zealand in the 2nd & Final Test on the 26th. (Newswire)
