Lasith Malinga out of T-20s
Fast bowler Lasith Malinga has been ruled out of the three match T-20 series in South Africa after he complained about pain in the knees during a warm-up game in Colombo.
Malinga was expected to feature in the series in South Africa, but now will come back during the T-20 series in Australia that follows Sri Lanka's tour of South Africa.
The 33-year-old has not played any cricket since the Asia Cup in Bangladesh last February due to knee injuries.
He was expected to make a return much earlier, but was down with dengue and that prolonged his return to international cricket.
