Dushmantha Chameera is to replace him in the side and his name has been sent for ICC Event Technical Committee for approval.
Lahiru Kumara, the hero of Sri Lanka’s eight-wicket win over England, had complained of pain during Saturday’s training session.
He picked up 3-35 against England and was named man-of-the-match for his brilliant spell of seam bowling.
