Sri Lanka drop Malinga for India T20s

Dec 15, 2017 - 2:27 PM Sri Lanka have dropped fast bowler Lasith Malinga from their squad of 15 players for the upcoming three-match Twenty20 series against India.

It is the second successive series for which the 34-year-old fast bowler has been overlooked. He last played for Sri Lanka in the only T20 match against India last July and was dropped for the one-day internationals as well as T20 games against Pakistan played in the United Arab Emirates.

Malinga was also not considered for the current one-day international series in India.

The team, led by Thisara Perera, will play three T20 matches against India starting December 20.
