Fast bowler Nuwan Zoysa has been recalled to Sri Lanka's [ Images ] one-day squad for their seven-match tour of India [ Images ] starting later this month.
Zoysa was omitted from the Sri Lanka squad that won a home series against Bangladesh in September but got his recall after proving his form and fitness with the A team.
The 27-year-old's recall is at the expense of opener Avishka Gunawardene [ Images ] as the selectors adjusted the balance of the 15-man squad with the inclusion of another bowling option.

Sri Lanka leave for India on October 20 for a split tour that includes seven ODIs between Oct. 25 and Nov. 12 followed by a three-match test series in December.
Squad: Marvan Atapattu (captain), Mahela Jayawardene [ Images ] (vice-captain), Sanath Jayasuriya [ Images ], Kumar Sangakkara [ Images ] (wk), Tillakaratne Dilshan [ Images ], Upul Tharanga, Thilan Samaraweera [ Images ], Chaminda Vaas [ Images ], Upul Chandana, Farveez Maharoof, Russel Arnold [ Images ], Dilhara Fernando, Muttiah Muralitharan [ Images ], Dilhara Lokuhettige, Nuwan Zoysa.
