Hot Press: Windies vs Sri Lanka ….. Lining Up

ONE: Sanath Jayasuriya appointed as Coach — Two Year Appointment 

Former captain Sanath Jayasuriya has been appointed Sri Lanka’s head coach after a successful period in charge on an interim basis.

The 55-year-old former all-rounder took over in July following the departure of ex-England coach Chris Silverwood. Under Jayasuriya, Sri Lanka won the third Test against England at The Oval and beat New Zealand in two Tests last month.

He has been appointed on a contract until the end of March 2026 – a period taking in the next T20 World Cup which Sri Lanka will co-host with India in early 2026.

TWO: SL Squad of Seventeen
