Sri Lanka Cricket to Announce ICC World Cup 2023 Squad on Monday, Fitness Concerns Loom for Two Key Players

September 23, 2023

Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) is set to make a formal announcement of the squad for the ICC World Cup 2023 on Monday, with Dasun Shanaka continuing as the captain. The announcement is eagerly anticipated by cricket fans as several key players who missed the Asia Cup due to injuries are expected to make their return to the squad.

One notable player whose fitness is generating significant discussion is Wanidu Hasaranga. The cricket commentator Roshan Abeysinghe raised concerns about Hasaranga's availability, stating, "The big question yet to be answered will be about Wanidu's fitness and thus his availability for the World Cup! Will be a massive blow if he is out as I heard that the news about Chameera too is not encouraging."

The inclusion or absence of players like Hasaranga and Chameera could have a significant impact on Sri Lanka's performance in the upcoming World Cup.
