Sri Lanka have appointed Charith Asalanka as white-ball vice-captain for the upcoming series against England. Asalanka returns to the leadership group after being removed as ODI captain three months ago.
Kusal Mendis continues as the white-ball captain. All-rounder Dasun Shanaka makes an ODI comeback after a two-and-a-half-year absence from the format.
The series begins later this month. Asalanka's appointment signals a reset in Sri Lanka's limited-overs leadership structure.
CricHubb Take
Asalanka's return to the leadership group within months of being dropped shows Sri Lanka's willingness to reverse recent decisions when results demand change.
