Sri Lanka makes changes to squad for must-win Test against India

Sri Lanka prepares for the second Test against India on August 23 in Colombo, needing a win to level the series after losing the first Test by 165 runs. Key players Kusal Mendis and Dinesh Chandimal are ruled out due to injuries. Mendis has a proper hamstring injury, while Chandimal is sidelined under concussion protocols after an incident on the fourth day of the first Test. Off-spin all-rounder Sahan Arachchige and batter Kamil Mishara have been included in the squad, replacing injured players. Coach Gary Kirsten indicated that changes to the playing XI are likely as Sri Lanka seeks to bounce back.
