SL vs NZ – WTC – Sri Lanka call up uncapped offspinner Nishan Peiris for second Test vs New Zealand
The 27-year-old Peiris, meanwhile, might have an outside chance of making it into the playing XI. Despite having made the Test squad twice in the past, back in 2018 and earlier this year in March, he’s yet to make his debut. But with Ramesh Mendis’ performance coming in for criticism from skipper Dhananjaya de Silva following the end of the first Test, there is some doubt over his position in the team.
