Recalling leg-spinner Jeffrey Vandersay and batsman Bhanuka Rajapaksa for the forthcoming T20I series against the West Indies is a bold move by Sri Lanka. Known for his forceful hitting, Rajapaksa is coming off a fantastic CPL 2024 campaign in which he was instrumental in the St Lucia Kings' championship run. Conversely, Vandersay has been a great addition to Sri Lanka's spin unit after making an impression in previous One-Day Internationals against India.
The thrilling series is slated to take place in the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium from October 13 to October 17, 2024. A change in strategy has been implemented in the team with the departure of bowlers Dilshan Madushanka and Dushmantha Chameera, as well as former captain Dasun Shanaka.
With the return of these important players, our Reddy Anna Match Prediction indicates that Sri Lanka will want to recover from their previous series defeat to India and might be well-positioned to face the West Indies.
