BBC SPORT | Cricket | England | Jaded Vaas takes break

Sri Lankan seamers Chaminda Vaas and Nuwan Zoysa will play no part in the two-Test series against Bangladesh, which starts in Colombo on Sunday.

The selectors have decided to give the two left-armers a rest as they look to try out some new faces against Test cricket's weakest side.

Vaas is second only to Muttiah Muralitharan in the all-time list of Sri Lankan wicket-takers with 200 wickets, but he managed only four in three Tests during the recent series in England.

There is no place either for fellow pacemen Ruchira Perera, whose bowling action was reported to the International Cricket Council during the tour, and Eric Upashanta.

The selectors have picked a 15-man squad for each Test, but eight senior players will be replaced by youngsters for the second match.

Only victory will do for Jayasuriya

Sanath Jayasuriya retains the captaincy despite the disappointing tour to England, which saw them lose the Test series 2-0 and then fail to qualify for the final of the triangular one-day tournament, which was won by India.

Spinner Muralitharan returns to action after missing the one-day series to rest his left shoulder, which he dislocated earlier this year.

He will be looking to add to his haul of 420 Test wickets, but will not play in the second game.

The squad for the first Test includes only two players who were not part of the tour squad to England, paceman Sujeeva de Silva and medium pacer Hasantha Fernando.

They are joined in the squad for the second Test by Michael Vandort, Jehan Mubarak, Chamila Gamage and Pulasthi Gunaratne.
