Madushanka comes on the back of his impressive form, picking up nine wickets with his left-arm pace against a visiting South Africa A side across three 50-over games and then another four in a four-day encounter, this month.

Overall in ODIs, he has 50 wickets in 44 matches at an economy rate of 5.39.
