Colombo: Batsmen Mahela Jayawardene and Lahiru Thirimanne have been named in Sri Lanka's 15-member squad for the WorldT20 in Bangladesh next month after injury layoffs, while strike spin bowler Rangana Herath will have to prove his fitness for his inclusion.

Both Jayawardene and Herath had returned from Bangladesh having missed Twenty20 and one-day international matches there due to injuries. Thirimanne returned home from United Arab Emirates last December midway through playing Pakistan.
