Quote: “He (Hasaranga) will be a huge loss for us. He’s our superstar in white-ball cricket. We expect Dasun and Chamika to step up as all-rounders. Dasun’s role will be flexible depending on the situation, and Chamika will add depth to our lower order.

Our goal is to break into the top 5 of the T20 rankings. It’s a process, and the key to success is consistency. We continue to search for the best lineup and the right players for crucial positions,” Asalanka stated.
