An overseas cricketer is set to join the Colombo Stars franchise of the Lanka Premier League (LPL) T20 tournament today.
Afghanistan cricketer Karim Janat is expected to join the franchise this evening.
He is set to replace David Wiese who left the tournament midway due to personal reasons.
Colombo will play Kandy today in a do-or-die clash where the winner will qualify for the playoffs of the Lanka Premier League 2021.
But according to LPL sources, it’s still not certain if Karim Janat is available for today’s game as he had only landed in Sri Lanka shortwhile ago.
Meanwhile, Colombo Stars’ all-rounder Seekuge Prasanna who missed the last game due to an injury is expected to play in the decider against Kandy warriors today.
Also, the Dambulla team has included all-rounder Lahiru Samarakoon to the team as a cover for injured captain Dasun Shanaka. (NewsWire)
