Dammika Prasad, the fast bowler who is part of the squad for the tri-nation series in Bangladesh which starts on Saturday, makes way for Dilshan in Pakistan.Dilshan was dropped for the tri-nation series because of poor form but he returned to contention after scoring 366 runs, including two centuries in the second Test, and taking four wickets in Sri Lanka's 2-0 series win.Apart from Prasad, all other members of the tri-nation squad will make the trip to Pakistan.
