More than a Test series for Lankans

Having had their bowling stocks severely depleted following the retirement of veteran seamer Suranga Lakmal and decisions to rest Dushmantha Chameera and Lahiru Kumara, Sri Lanka is in a painful position ahead of their two-match Test series against Bangladesh starting today in Chattogram, Bangladesh.

With their absence, pace injection has fallen on the shoulders of Vishwa Fernando, Asitha Fernando, Kasun Rajitha, Chamika Karunaratne and uncapped Dilshan Madushanka. Can they rise to the challenge is the question.
