Sri Lanka comprehensively defeated Afghanistan by 132 runs in the second one-day-international to square the series 1-1 in Hambantota.

Sri Lanka will take on Afghanistan in the second game of the three-match One-Day-International series at the Sooriyawewa International Stadium in Hambantota.

The game is scheduled to get underway at 10am. Sri Lanka must win today’s encounter to keep the series alive.

The Dasun Shanaka-led team was beaten by the Afghans by 6 wickets on Friday at the same venue.

The home side is expected to make at least couple of changes with injured Lahiru Kumara making way for speedster Dushmantha Chameera.

Meanwhile, Wanindu Hasaranga is expected to return to the crucial game today in place of Dushan Hemantha.

Sri Lanka’s top order failed to click on Friday and selectors may also shuffle the pack to avoid an embarrassing series defeat.

The representatives of the World Rugby Council and Asia Rugby are scheduled to visit Sri Lanka in July.

The visit has been scheduled in response to a letter sent by Sports Minister Roshan Ranasinghe to the World Rugby Council on Monday.

The Minister has expressed regret over the issues in Sri Lanka rugby administration and has said in the letter that he hopes to discuss a resolution to safeguard the sport.

The purpose of the visit is to discuss the issues that have arisen in Sri Lankan rugby.
