Suspense continues on Madsen and Hasaranga

Italy captain Wayne Madsen is injured. He dislocated his shoulder in the match against Scotland, due to which he was out of that match. But, till now no information has been revealed regarding his exit from the tournament.

Talking about Sri Lanka's Wanindu Hasaranga, he played Sri Lanka's first match in the tournament against Ireland, in which he gave 3 wickets for 25 runs in 4 overs and looked in good form.
