Wanindu Hasaranga is a talented all-rounder known for his exceptional leg-spin bowling and lower-order batting. His absence has left a void in the Sri Lankan bowling attack. Hasaranga’s ability to pick up crucial wickets in the middle overs and contain the opposition’s scoring rate has been sorely missed. His presence not only added depth to the bowling department but also provided a much-needed balance to the team.
