Malinga could return from ankle surgery for World Cup

SRI LANKA bowler Lasith Malinga could return from injury for the latter stages of the one-day international series against New Zealand. The 31-year-old had surgery on his left ankle in September, missing his nation’s 5-2 series win over England.

“He will return for the last two ODIs (on 25 & 29 January) in New Zealand,” said Sri Lanka coach Marvan Atapattu.

The 2011 World Cup runners-up begin their tournament against co-hosts New Zealand in Christchurch on 14 February. — BBC Sport
