Pavan Rathnayake and Nuwanidu Fernando called up for SL's tour of Zimbabwe
The Island
|August 23, 2025
Uncapped batter Pavan Rathnayake is in line to make his debut for Sri Lanka after being named in their 16-member squad for the limited overs tour of Zimbabwe.

Sri Lanka also recalled Nuwanidu Fernando, who has been knocking on the national team's door for a while. The 25-year-old made his ODI debut in January 2023, but has played only five ODIs and a solitary T20I so far.
Nuwanidu's recent performances, though, have made him hard to ignore. He struck 122 runs, including a match-winning 82, across two List A games against Australia A in Darwin last month, to go with a first class century on the same tour. In the recent SLC T20 League, a three-team invitational tournament designed to help selectors finalise squads ahead of the Asia Cup and this Zimbabwe tour, Nuwanidu hit two half centuries in four innings.
