Mohammad Nabi

Mohammad Nabi has just stepped down as captain and will have to step with performances to ensure he doesn’t face any issues going forward. He remains one of their best players and with the upcoming World Cup likely to be his last, he will want to ensure he is around till then.

Maheesh Theekshana

Wanindu Hasaranga has highlighted Sri Lanka’s spin stocks. Theekshana though has been just as good, supporting him, and will hope to step out of the shadows with some strong performances in helpful conditions.
