Sri Lanka spinner Ajantha Mendis will miss a two-test series in Bangladesh starting later this month because of an ankle injury, the cricket board said.
Mendis, 23, was injured while playing in a domestic game and is expected to be sidelined for at least three weeks, Sri Lanka Cricket said in a statement.
The unorthodox finger spinner was declared Man-of-the-Series in his debut test series against India in July-August, taking 26 wickets at 18.38 runs apiece in three games.
Sri Lanka have called-up left-arm spinner Rangana Herath as the replacement for the series starting on December 26.
