Rashmika Sewwandi Earns Maiden ODI Call-up As Sri Lanka Name Squad For Pakistan Series
T20 World Cup: Sri Lanka has handed teenage fast bowler Rashmika Sewwandi her maiden ODI call-up as the selectors announced a 15-member squad for the upcoming three-match home series against Pakistan, with Chamari Athapaththu continuing as captain.
The biggest talking point from the squad announcement is the inclusion of the highly-rated Sewwandi. At the same time, Malki Madara has been left out of the squad that defeated Bangladesh 2-1 in the previous ODI series. Piumi Wathsala, Sugandika Kumari, and Nuthyangana are the other players to miss out.
Athapaththu, who starred with the bat during Sri Lanka's ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2026 campaign, will once again lead the side. The experienced all-rounder was one of the standout performers at the tournament, smashing an unbeaten 106 off 61 balls against Ireland and returning figures of 1-23 to earn the Player of the Match award.
