Background

India: Indian team's key batsman Sachin Tendulkar opted out of the tournament in order to rest for the tests against Bangladesh which are scheduled to be held after this tournament. Tendulkar will be replaced by Rohit Sharma in the 16-man squad. The fast bowlers Ishant Sharma and Praveen Kumar have been dropped and replaced by Sreesanth and Ashok Dinda and spinner Pragyan Ojha has been replaced by Amit Mishra.
Sri Lanka: Sri Lanka made various changes to its side due to the poor performance of players such as Sanath Jayasuriya, Chamara Kapugedera, Lasith Malinga and Ajantha Mendis in the recently concluded tour of India and injuries to players namely Mahela Jayawardene, Angelo Mathews and bowlers Muttiah Muralitharan and Dilhara Fernando. However Tillakaratne Dilshan suffered a groin injury in the first match against Bangladesh and missed the two successive matches of the tournament. Other players who suffered injuries were, Chamara Silva who fractured his thumb during the training and Muthumudalige Pushpakumara who injured his shoulder in the second match of the tournament against India. To fill the void in the squad, Sri Lanka brought Mahela Jayawardene, Dinesh Chandimal and Mahela Udawatte into the team.
Bangladesh: Bangladesh are going into the tournament without their fast bowler, Mashrafe Mortaza who failed to recover from his knee injury. The Bangladeshi squad also features two former ICL players, opener Shahriar Nafees and batsman Aftab Ahmed. The squad will also feature an uncapped player, Shafiul Islam who is a fast bowler. Just before the start of the tournament Bangladesh fast bowler Nazmul Hossain was ruled out of the tri-series because of his injury and was replaced by Shahadat Hossain in the squad.
