Masakadza finally gets ODI call up

Wellington Masakadza, who last played an international match in March 2016, has been included in Zimbabwe's ODI squad for the series against Sri Lanka. The left-arm spinner, who has 15 wickets from 10 ODIs, last appeared in a 50-over international fixture in 2015, against Afghanistan in Sharjah.

The Zimbabwe squad for the only Test of the tour had three recalls — Regis Chakabva, Carl Mumba and Natsai M'shangwe — while uncapped allrounder Nathan Waller was also picked. Solomon Mire, Richard Ngarava and Chamu Chibhabha were left out. Waller was a part of Zimbabwe's squad for the home series against Afghanistan in February but did not get a match. The changes also mean that Mire and Ngarava will have to wait longer for a maiden Test appearance.

This is Zimbabwe's first tour of Sri Lanka since a three-Test series in December-January 2001. While the five-match ODI series on this tour begins on June 30, the one-off Test will be played in Colombo, starting July 14.
