Lahiru Thirimanne and Dasun Shanaka will lead ODI and T20 teams to Pakistan after several senior players including ODI skipper Dimuth Karunaratne and T20 skipper Lasith Malinga pulled out of the tour citing security reasons.

Sri Lanka will play three ODIs and three T20 internationals in Lahore and Karachchi-- a decade after the Sri Lankan team was ambushed by gunmen in 2009.

Its a shame. Remember when the west Indies and other countries did not want to visit Sri Lanka on security grounds it was India and Pakistan who came to our rescue. So we should be ashamed if we cannot return the favor.
