Angelo Mathews to Miss Last Three ODIs

Cuttack: Sri Lanka all-rounder Angelo Mathews will miss the rest of the One-Day International series in India because of injury.

The medium-pacer strained his right quadriceps during his match-winning 37 not out in Friday's second ODI, which the tourists won by three wickets to level the five-match series 1-1.

The recovery is expected to take up to four weeks, the team said on Saturday on their website.

The third match will be played in Cuttack on Monday. Uncapped all-rounder Thissara Perera was named as Mathews' replacement on a tour that has already seen four bowlers return home injured.
