London: Sri Lankan all rounder Sanath Jayasuriya (41) is set to make a dramatic one-day comeback against England.
With opener Upul Tharanga unlikely to be considered for selection after being embroiled in an alleged doping scandal, Jayasuriya should be an automatic choice to open the innings for the forthcoming ODI and Twenty20 series against England.
The veteran champion who celebrates his 42nd birthday on June 30 is easily the oldest cricketer in international cricket at present.
“If I get the call from the national selectors, I am ready to take the guard. Whenever I was given the chance, I always gave hundred percent,” he told the Daily Mirror. (ANI)
