Prasanna was an influence with both the ball and the bat to help his side to a T20 2-1 series victory over South Africa on Wednesday.

Prasanna manhandled England to the tune of 59 off 28, before taking one for 43 off 10 overs during Tuesday's draw with England at Trent Bridge.

Prasanna went 95 for 46 as a batsman and took two wickets in eight overs with one maiden while conceding 32 runs in Saturday's ODI victory over Ireland in Dublin.

Prasanna made his first World Cup appearance Sunday, after replacing Dimuth Karunaratne (finger) in the squad. He took one wicket for 77 runs off his 10 overs and contributed nine runs off 11 balls in the loss to Australia at the SCG.

Prasanna has been called to Australia in case a replacement is needed for Rangana Herath (finger) on Sri Lanka's World Cup squad, ESPN Cric Info reports.
