SRI LANKA batsman Sanath Jayasuria is set for an unexpected swansong in the upcoming limited overs series against England.

With Upul Tharanga ruled out of the rest of the tour having reportedly failed a drugs test during the World Cup the tourists have turned to the 41-year-old veteran to dig them out of a hole.

The left-handed opening bat, who won the last of his 444 one-day international caps in December 2009, will feature in a one-off Twenty20 fixture and the first of the five scheduled one-day international before retiring for good.
