Kusal Mendis appointed Sri Lanka Test captain

Original: kusal mendis

Dhananjaya de Silva has stepped down as Sri Lanka's Test captain, and wicketkeeper-batter Kusal Mendis has been appointed to lead the Test side. With Mendis already captaining the white-ball teams, the appointment makes him Sri Lanka's captain across all three formats. The move has drawn wide attention from cricket fans in India and Sri Lanka as the island nation reshapes its leadership ahead of upcoming international assignments.

Why now: Sri Lanka named a new all-format captain after Dhananjaya de Silva's resignation, a significant change in its cricket leadership.
