Chameera ruled out of England tour due to back injury - dillinger10 - 05-24-2016
Quote: Sri Lanka fast bowler Dushmantha Chameera has been ruled out of the England tour after suffering a stress fracture to his lower back. Chameera has been advised rest for four months and will return to Sri Lanka to continue his treatment. Chameera is also likely to miss the home Tests against Australia, which start from July 26.
The Sri Lanka selectors are expected to meet by Wednesday to pick a replacement for the squad in England. The loss of Chameera is the second big blow to Sri Lanka's bowling attack after fast bowler Dhammika Prasad returned home last week because of a shoulder injury.

A tough start to to the tour for Sri Lanka gets tougher. Losing Chameera and Prasad has completely gutted their bowling attack. This is a shame as Chameera was looking to be a very good prospect.
