Sri Lankan all-rounder Dunith Wellalage will join his team for the Asia Cup Super Four match against Bangladesh on Saturday. This comes after a brief hiatus due to his father’s death from a heart attack at 54.
After playing against Afghanistan, Wellalage learned of his father’s passing and immediately flew to Colombo. He returned to the UAE on Friday night with team manager Mahinda Halangode.
