Note to editors
 Wanindu Hasaranga, Dushmantha Chameera, Dilshan Madushanka, and Lahiru Kumara, who were selected in the original squad, will not take part owing to ‘injuries.’.

 Binura Fernando and Pramod Madushan’s names have been sent to the Ministry of Sports and Youth for approval, as they were late inclusions to replace injured players.

 Kusal Janith Perera is recovering from a “flu’, which he suffered, and will join the squad once fully recovered.
