Beleagured Sri Lanka cricket captain Dasun Shanaka is reported to have been injured and out of the World Cup now taking place in India.

He is reported to be out for three weeks and is expected to return to the island and a replacement made with Chamikara Karunaratne being the likely candidate to fill the vacant position in the Sri Lanka squad.

But there was speculation that Shanaka had differences with consultant coach Mahela Jayawardena over on-field issues connected to the Pakistan match that Sri Lanka lost after defending a total of 344.

At the time of reporting, Sri Lanka Cricket had not issued any media release as they usually do and attempts by the Sunday Observer to clarify the situation proved futile.
