Lanka Premier League Teams Adjust Squads Amid Injuries and Playoff Race
Lanka Premier League franchises have made several squad changes ahead of the tournament's crucial phase due to injuries and national call-ups. Dambulla Sixers, currently fourth with four points, signed Zimbabwe all-rounder Sikandar Raza as an injury replacement for Marques Ackerman but face playoff uncertainty after recent defeats. Colombo Kaps and Galle Gallants also adjusted their squads, with Colombo replacing injured Kusal Mendis and Bangladesh pacer Hasan Mahmud departing for national duty. These changes aim to maintain competitive balance as the playoffs approach.
