Sri Lanka having conceded an innings defeat in the first Test at Centurion have added up pacers - NuwanKulasekara and Dhammika Prasad to their squad for the remaining two Tests. The tourists have enough time for this pair to join the squad and get into the groove before the Third Test on Boxing Day (December 26) at Durban.

Ironically, the two pacers - Kulasekara and Prasad were both injured prior to the Series but seemed to have recovered now to join the side in South Africa. The Lankans already had a couple of injury problems on the current tour with fast bowler NuwanPradeep breaking down during the warm-up game and all-rounder Angelo Mathews suffering from a groin strain.
